Sonnet Solo10G Thunderbolt 3 to SFP+ 10 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter SOLO10G-SFP-T3

Sonnet Solo10G Thunderbolt 3 to SFP+ 10 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter SOLO10G-SFP-T3 10GbE Network Connectivity, Solo10G SFP+ Thunderbolt Adapter 10 Gigabit Ethernet Thunderbolt Adapter with Short-range SFP+ Transceiver for Mac, Windows, and Linux Computers and M series iPad Pro with Thunderbolt Ports Blazing-fast Portable 10GBASE-SR Access Most post-production shared storage workgroups and other bandwidth-intensive workflows have been rapidly transitioning to 10Gb Ethernet as the new data transfer standard. For many, the 10Gb Ethernet network infrastructure of choice is optical (SFP+) 10Gb Ethernet. For these workgroups, there is now an affordable 10GbE interface for your Mac ® , Windows ® , or Linux ® computer with Thunderbolt™ ports Solo10G™ SFP+ Thunderbolt Adapter, a powerfully simple solution for adding blazing-fast fiber optic 10GbE network connectivity. Connect to 10GbE Infrastructure Solo10G SFP+ adapter includes a 10GBASE-SR (short-range) SFP+ transceiver (the most commonly-used optical transceiver), enabling you to connect your computer to 10GbE infrastructure via LC optical cable (sold separately) at distances up to 300 meters. Advanced Features, Intelligent Operation Solo10G SFP+ adapter attains its high throughput performance and low host-CPU utilization through functions such as flow control, 64-bit address support for systems using more than 4GB of physical memory; and stateless offloads such as TCP, UDP, and IPv4 checksum offloading. These processes enable your computer to perform better while large files transfers or high I/O operations take place. This Sonnet adapter also supports the Energy-Efficient Ethernet standard (IEEE 802.3az), which reduces the adapter’s power demands on your computer. Additional SFP+ Transceiver Choices With Solo10GSFP+ adapter, Sonnet includes an interchangeable short-range multi-mode fiber optical SFP+ module (up to 300 meters), part number G10E-SFP-SR . Sonnet also offers the following SFP+ transceivers modules, sold separately: a long-range single-mode fiber module (up to 10 kilometers), part number G10E-SFP-LR ; and a 10GBASE-T copper module (up to 30 meters using Cat 6A cables), part number G10E-SFP-T . Alternatively, you can use cost-effective direct-attach Twinax copper cables (up to 10 meters long). Pocketable. Bus-powered. Silent. Unlike most 10GbE adapters, Solo10G SFP+ adapter is pocketable measuring only 3.1 inches wide by 4.9 inches deep by 1.1 inches tall and bus-powered to enable truly portable use without a power adapter. Designed using the latest technologies, and wrapped in a rugged aluminum case, this Sonnet adapter is cool running and doesn’t need a fan, allowing silent and energy-efficient operation. Simple Setup Connect Solo10G SFP+ adapter to your computer, and the adapter to the network switch or directly to 10GbE-enabled storage, and then configure the adapter’s settings through the macOS® Network control panel, Windows Device Manager, or Linux command line (or graphical utility). Thunderbolt Technology – Fastest External Interface Available Solo10G SFP+ Thunderbolt features a high-speed Thunderbolt interface that delivers the PCIe bandwidth to support 10Gb ports at full speed. Replaceable Captive Cable Through the use of a captive cable, Solo10G SFP+ adapter’s Thunderbolt connector remains firmly connected to it at all times. Should the cable ever break, it can easily be replaced with an approved replacement cable available from Sonnet or a Sonnet-authorized reseller. Safe and Secure As a networked conduit into your computer, Solo10G SFP+ adapter was designed with essential security features. Incorporating encryption in hardware, this Sonnet adapter is protected against malicious modification of its firmware. Any unauthorized attempt at firmware modification to facilitate surreptitious computer access would render the adapter inoperable. This secure design prevents Solo10G SFP+ adapter firmware from being reprogrammed except by a manufacturer’s update using a secure encryption key. Compatible with Current Thunderbolt Computers and Apple M series Macs Solo10G SFP+ adapter is fully compatible with current Thunderbolt computers, including Apple M series Macs. Sonnet Thunderbolt Ethernet adapters are purposely designed with a Thunderbolt 3 controller and its four lanes of PCIe (not available in a Thunderbolt 4 peripheral) to achieve maximum simultaneous ingest speeds.
