Sonnet offers the ideal solution to overcome this limitation with the Echo™ SE I T5 Thunderbolt™ 5 to PCIe card expansion system. This compact, single-slot solution works with the latest Macs, Windows PCs, and Linux computers equipped with Thunderbolt or USB4 ports, letting you connect almost any Thunderbolt-compatible (non-GPU) PCIe card using the included Thunderbolt 5 cable.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePro PCIe Card Expansion\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEcho SE I T5 enables you to connect a pro PCIe card — such as video capture and playback; audio interface; SAS, SATA or Fibre Channel host bus adapter; multiport 10Gb or 25Gb Ethernet; or RAID controller — to add the ports and processors your computer lacks. Providing up to 6000 MB\/s of bi-directional PCIe bandwidth to the installed card — twice that of Thunderbolt 4 or 3 — you’ll be able to extract even better performance with cards with ultra-high bandwidth requirements when connected to a computer with Thunderbolt 5 ports!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eOne PCIe 4.0 Slot and Space for a Daughter Card\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSonnet Echo SE I T5 features an x8 PCIe 4.0 slot, and supports a single- or double-width PCIe card. Double-width? Examples include pro video and audio cards like the Blackmagic Design DeckLink 8K Pro G2, which spans two card spaces, or main cards with connected daughter cards that use the neighboring space for additional ports.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePower to Spare\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEcho SE I T5 includes an auxiliary PCIe power connector that enables you to use a card that requires extra power such as the AJA Kona 5, Blackmagic Decklink 4K Extreme12G and DeckLink 8K Pro G2, and Deltacast 12G\/4C.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSupports Almost Any Thunderbolt-compatible, Non-GPU PCIe Card\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMeasuring just 3.4 inches wide by 11.2 inches long by 5.8 inches tall, the compact Echo SE I T5 supports cards at a maximum of 7.75 inches long, making it compatible with nearly all Thunderbolt-compatible PCIe 4.0, 3.0, 2.0, and 1.1 cards. Not sure if a card you own or are considering is compatible? We’ve put together a compatibility list that identifies cards that are Thunderbolt compatible and organized by fit and power compatibility with specific expansion systems.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLight.
