Sonnet Echo Express SE I Thunderbolt3 Expansion System PCIe

Sonnet Echo Express SE I Thunderbolt3 Expansion System PCIe

SON-ECHO-EXP-SE1-T3

The Sonnet Echo Express SE I Thunderbolt 3 to PCIe card expansion system provides a PCIe 3.0 x8 slot for Thunderbolt 3 equipped laptops and computers without a PCIe slot. It supports full-height PCIe cards up to 7.75" in length. It supports full-height and half-length PCIe cards up to 7.75", double-wide PCI cards or PCIe cards with a daughter card, whether these are for professional video capture, network cards or audio interfaces running over Thunderbolt. 

Its 2x Thunderbolt 3 ports, which transmit data at up to 40Gbps, allow up to 6 cascaded devices to be daisy-chained. This Sonnet expansion box also integrates a fan to cool the PCI card and the SE I internal components. The 1.6' Thunderbolt 3 cable is supplied along with a Thunderbolt 3 connector retention clip to ensure the cable stays connected.

Expansion system via Thunderbolt 3 for half-height and full-length PCIe cards.


Allows a PCIe card to be connected to computers without expansion bays, which have a Thunderbolt3 port. The expansion box has a PCIe 3.0 x8 bay, so thanks to the high bandwidth of Thunderbolt3 (40Gbps) it is possible to install 16Gb and 8Gb Fibre Channel Ethernet or 40Gb and 10Gb Ethernet cards in it, as well as SAS and SATA host bus adapters, RAID controllers and 4K video capture cards at high frame rates. It also supports connection of graphics with support for 2 4K@60Hz displays or a 5K@60Hz display and support for a wide range of Thunderbolt and USB peripheral devices.The Echo Express SE I features a PCIe 3.0 x8 slot and supports half-height and double-wide cards. Some professional audio and video interface cards, such as Blackmagic Design's DeckLink 4K Extreme and RME's HDSPe MADI FX card, include a daughter card that mates with the main card and provides additional external connections to the main card. The Echo Express SE expansion box has adjacent space that would also accommodate these.

It includes two Thunderbolt3 ports; the first connects to the computer, while the second supports daisy-chaining of up to five Thunderbolt peripheral devices, additional to a single port on the computer. The expansion box includes support for USB3.1 Gen2 at 10Gbps, which means you can connect a USB device to the second port using the appropriate cable or adapter. The Echo Express SE I also provides full support for connecting two 4K displays at 60Hz or one 5K display at 60Hz. For connected devices requiring additional power, 15 watts is provided to connected bus-powered devices.

Constructed of rugged, lightweight aluminum, the outer casing of the Echo Express SE I - Thunderbolt3 Edition securely protects the installed PCIe card. The card is also protected on the inside: the Echo SE I uses a variable-speed, temperature-controlled fan to ensure that the card and chassis components remain reliably cool. The fan automatically speeds up as needed to cool the installed card when it is hot and slows down when it is cold. Since Echo Express products automatically turn on and off with your computer, there is no power switch on the chassis, ensuring you won't waste energy by forgetting to turn it off. It was designed to be ultra-quiet for comfortable use in noise-sensitive environments. The airflow path inside the chassis has been specially designed to allow the fan to quietly and efficiently cool the installed card at all times, even during peak operation.
