A prime example is the latest MacBook Pro, which, while offering great performance, lacks the PCIe expansion slots necessary to support specialty cards that connect pro video and audio inputs, transcode data, and connect to high-speed storage and networks. Instead of slots, these computers include ultra high-performance Thunderbolt 3 ports to support peripherals. The \u003cstrong\u003eSonnet Echo Express III-R Thunderbolt 3\u003c\/strong\u003e leverages the Thunderbolt 3 ports’ PCIe data to connect PCIe expansion slots outside of a computer. This desktop Thunderbolt-to-PCIe card expansion chassis enables you to connect three professional PCIe cards—including video capture, audio interface, SAS or SATA HBA, 16Gb or 8Gb Fibre Channel, 10 Gigabit Ethernet, and RAID controllers—at the same time to any Mac or Windows computer with a Thunderbolt 3 port.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe Echo Express III-R (Thunderbolt 3 Edition) features a 40Gbps Thunderbolt 3 interface, which offers double the PCIe bandwidth and connectivity of Thunderbolt 2, and yields up to 2750 MB\/s of bandwidth, enabling it to support 4K video capture and processing cards at high frame rates, and 16Gb FC cards and dual-port 10GbE cards at full performance. With the ability to handle multiple demanding, highest performance PCIe cards, support for connecting two 4K displays @ 60 Hz or one 5K display @ 60 Hz, and support for a vast array of Thunderbolt and USB devices, Thunderbolt 3 is a leap forward in every way.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eThree PCIe 3.0 Slots, No Compromise\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eSonnet’s Echo Express III-R supports three full-size PCIe cards, up to 12.28 inches (full-length) long. The III-R integrates a universal 300 W power supply and includes a 75 W PCIe power connector for cards that require supplementary power, such as the RED ROCKET-X.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eEven with all that power, the III-R is enviro-friendly; it automatically powers on or off whenever the connected computer powers on or wakes, or powers off or sleeps, respectively.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003e40Gbps Thunderbolt 3 — USB C That Does It All\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe Echo Express III-R (Thunderbolt 3 Edition) includes two Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports; the first is used for connection to your computer, while the second supports daisy chaining of up to five additional Thunderbolt peripheral devices to a single port on your computer. The III-R includes 10Gbps USB 3.1 Gen 2 support, meaning you can connect a USB device to the second port using the proper cable or adapter. The III-R also provides full support for connecting two 4K displays @ 60 Hz or one 5K display @ 60 Hz. For connected devices requiring extra power, 15 watts is provided to connected bus-powered devices.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sonnet Technologies","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44450197045351,"sku":"81520","price":899.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/sonnet-echo-express-iii-r-tb-3_81520_1_1_c5edbad3-7ff6-425e-a0cb-1d3d271b3bab.jpg?v=1787092083","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/sonnet-echo-express-iii-r-thunderbolt-3","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
