SONNET DuoModo Echo III Module
Sonnet DuoModo Echo III Module
is an expansion module that allows you to connect up to three full-height and full-length PCIe cards (up to 30.8 cm) to any computer with a Thunderbolt port. This is the fastest and most efficient solution using the full specificity of the Thunderbolt port.
Sonnet DuoModo Echo III Module is a module of the DuoModo system that allows simultaneous installation of up to 3 PCIe cards and their connection to any computer with a Thunderbolt port.
Connection via Thunderbolt 3 port
Sonnet DuoModo Echo III Module is an external expansion system with three professional PCIe cards (video capture; DSP audio; SAS or SATA 6Gb or 12Gb host bus adapter; Ethernet 10Gb, 25Gb or 40Gb; or RAID controller; etc.) connecting them to the computer using one Thunderbolt cable.
The Sonnet DuoModo Echo III Module is large enough to support almost any Thunderbolt-compatible card available.
With three x8 slots, the Sonnet Echo III Desktop supports PCIe 3.0, PCIe 2.0 and PCIe 1.1 cards with a full length of up to 30.8 cm and full height. The system does not support GPU cards.
The aluminum case will accommodate three single-width cards or one single-wide card plus one double-wide card.
Some specialty cards, such as HDSPe MADI FX RME, DeckLink 4K Extreme by Blackmagic Design, and Lynx AES16e 50, include a daughter card that works with the main card and provides additional external connections. Such cards are also compatible with Echo Express SE IIID
Additionally, the Sonnet DuoModo Echo III Module includes an auxiliary PCIe power connector, allowing you to install a card that requires additional power, such as the AJA® Kona® 5 or Blackmagic DeckLink 4K Extreme 12G, and Epoch and KRONOS SDI Bluefish444 cards.
1. Three PCIe x8 ports
2. 6-Pin power port
The fastest external Thunderbolt interface available
The Sonnet DuoModo Echo III Module features a Thunderbolt 40Gb/s interface, which offers twice the PCIe bandwidth of Thunderbolt 2 connectivity and also delivers up to 2,900 MB/s of bandwidth, enabling support for 4K video capture and processing cards at high frame rates . It supports 16Gb FC card and dual 10GbE ports at full performance.
