The Sonnet PCIe Solo 10G card mounts an RJ45 port, which allows a computer to be connected to a 10Gb Ethernet infrastructure using CAT 6 cable for distances of up to 55 meters, or CAT 6A up to 100 meters. Through features such as flow control, 64-bit address support, and stateless downloads, the PCIe Solo 10G card achieves high performance with low CPU consumption. This Sonnnet PCIe card supports the NBASE-T standard for Multi-Gigabit (2.5Gb/5Gb) link speeds over CAT 5e or higher. This allows this same card to be installed for different users with different Ethernet cabling infrastructures. Compatible with macOs, Windows, and Linux, the PCIe Solo 10G card is a low-profile PCIe 3.0 x4 card that's easy to install in computers with PCIe slots or using a Sonnet expansion system.

Low-profile PCIe card for expansion of network capabilities
With recent advances in technology, plus increasingly affordable gear, the transition to capturing and outputing content at 4K and higher resolutions has happened fast - the need for faster than Gigabit Ethernet speeds to tranfer all that data has accelerated equally fast. For Post-production shared storage workgroups and other bandwidth-intensive workflows, 10Gb Ethernet is the new data transfer standard. Speeding its adoption, very affordable 10Gb Ethernet switches with RJ45 have significally reduced the cost of setting up 10GbE infrastructure, but the price of adding client connectivity has remained a barrier for some.
Sonnet's PCIe Solo 10G Card is the affordable option for the desktop and workstation computers to have a 10 Gigabit Ethernet Port. This powerfull simple solution adds blazing-fast 10GBASE-T 10GbE network connectivity to Mac, Windows, and Linux computers.
Install the Solo 10G PCIe Card in your computer or Thunderbolt expansion system, connect to the network switch or directly to 10GbE-enabled storage, and configure the card's settings through operating system network device configuration tools.
Sonnet PCIe Solo 10G supports AVB or Audio Video Bridging (IEEE 802.1Qav, AVB) which makes this card perfect for use in professional audio and video applications, where synchronization of data streams is critical.
