Sonnet Echo II DV Thunderbolt 5 Desktop PCIe Expansion Chassis
Key Features
  • For M4 Pro, M4 Max, and M3 Ultra Systems
  • Thunderbolt 5 to PCIe Card Expansion
  • Supports Full-Height, Full-Length Cards
  • Supports Non-GPU Cards
Expand your compatible Mac with the power, speed, and connectivity of Thunderbolt 5 using the Echo II DV Thunderbolt 5 Desktop PCIe Expansion Chassis from Sonnet. Designed for the Apple MacBook Pro and Mac mini (with M4 Pro and M4 Max), and Mac Studio (with M4 Max and M3 Ultra), the Echo II DV helps overcome a lack of available PCIe slots by providing dual PCIe 4.0 x16 slots, allowing users to simultaneously connect two full-height, full-length PCIe cards using two Thunderbolt 5 ports and two included Thunderbolt 5 cables. Each slot has its own Thunderbolt 5 controller, meaning each installed PCIe card has access to up to 6000 MB/s of bandwidth, rather than 6000 MB/s being shared between the two slots. All of this supports bandwidth-hungry, non-GPU I/O cards, such as DV I/O, NVMe SSD storage, and multiport 25Gb Ethernet adapters. Power is provided by an integrated 400W PSU with dual 75W auxiliary connectors and operations are kept cool using dual cooling fans.

Does is have Space for a daughter card? Like blackmagic decklink 8k?
Asked by: Chris
The Sonnet Echo II DV Thunderbolt 5 chassis is only compatible with the Blackmagic Decklink 8K Pro G2 if you remove the daughter card. If your setup requires only SDI and no HDMI connections, then you could remove the daughter card from the Blackmagic 8K pro G2 turning it into a single width card. If you need the DeckLink 8K Pro G2 with its HDMI 2.1 / RS-422 daughter card then the Echo III, Echo SEIIIe or the new Echo SE I T5 are the available options from Sonnet. Sonnet Technologies, Inc.
