Universal Thunderbolt 4 Docking Station with Three Thunderbolt 4 Ports, One HDMI Port, 2.5Gb Ethernet, and 8K Display Support

The connections you expect from a Thunderbolt™ dock plus the HDMI port and ultra-fast 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet support you need. With this amazing dock, a single cable connects your computer to your digital world. The Sonnet Echo™ 11 Thunderbolt 4 HDMI Dock is your universal docking station for today and tomorrow. Compatible with Apple M series Macs; Thunderbolt™ 3 Intel Macs; Thunderbolt 3 or 4 Windows computers; and M series iPad Pro.

Plug In Your Peripherals and Power Your Computer with One Cable

Connect your Thunderbolt devices, monitor(s), USB peripherals, and Ethernet cable to the dock and then link them all to your computer with a single Thunderbolt cable. Got a laptop computer? The Echo 11 Thunderbolt 4 HDMI Dock will even power it with up to 100W of charging power. When it is time to leave, just unplug the Thunderbolt cable, grab your computer, and go.

Integrated HDMI Display Support - No HDMI Adapter Required

Echo 11 Thunderbolt 4 HDMI Dock was named in part after its most requested feature: a built-in HDMI port, enabling you to plug in an HDMI display directly to the dock.

Faster Ethernet Transfers Across Existing Cabling - 250% the Speed of Gigabit Ethernet

Featuring 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet, the Echo 11 Thunderbolt 4 HDMI Dock supports 2.5 Gb/s link speed over common Cat 5e (or better) cabling when used with a compatible Ethernet switch or NAS with 2.5Gb Ethernet support, saving you the cost of another adapter. You can get great performance gains - 250 percent the speed of Gigabit Ethernet - without rewiring! In case you're connecting to a switch without 2.5Gb Ethernet support, the Sonnet dock also supports 1 Gb/s and 100 Mb/s link speeds.

Dual Downstream Thunderbolt Ports - Versatile Connectivity for Work and Play

The Echo 11 Thunderbolt 4 HDMI Dock features three Thunderbolt 4 ports; one for connection/power to your computer, plus two for directly connecting Thunderbolt peripheral devices. The Thunderbolt peripheral ports also support USB4 and USB 3 peripherals, and even provide 15W power each to support the most demanding bus-powered Thunderbolt and USB peripherals.Ideal for Mac and Windows computers, especially laptops with only one or two Thunderbolt ports because you can connect and charge on the same port.

Powerful 10Gbps USB Ports for Bus-powered Devices

The Echo 11 Thunderbolt 4 HDMI Dock features four USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10Gbps) Type A ports - one on the front, three on the back - to support super-fast USB NVMe SSDs at up to full speed. And unlike some other docks, the Echo 11 doesn't skimp on power either - each port provides up to 7.5W, ensuring bus-powered devices will operate without fail.

Thunderbolt Certified for Mac, Windows, and iPad Pro

The Echo 11 Thunderbolt 4 HDMI Dock is certified for use with Apple M series Macs; Thunderbolt 3 Intel Macs; Thunderbolt 4 Windows computers; Thunderbolt 3 Windows computers with an Intel 8th Gen (2018) or newer CPU; and M series iPad Pro. See this product's Tech Specs page for current computer and OS compatibility information.

Connect a Full-Height, Half-Length+ PCIe Card to Computers Without Expansion Slots

Are you in the market for a new computer? It's amazing how much processing power the latest ultra-light notebooks, small form factor computers, and all-in-one desktop computers pack in such small and thin enclosures. But, thinness comes with a cost-there's nowhere for you to install PCIe cards for the additional connectivity and processing capabilities beyond what's offered by a computer's standard ports. Although thin Mac® and Windows® computers with Thunderbolt™ 3 ports offer processing power to spare, for many, such as pros in the creative fields, onboard processing power alone is not enough. Fortunately, your choices are not limited to desktop workstations-think external. With the Echo Express SE I - Thunderbolt 3 Edition, Sonnet has created a solution that enables you to connect a single PCIe card outside of your computer. This compact desktop Thunderbolt 3-to-PCIe card expansion system supports one professional video capture, audio interface, 6Gb or 12Gb SAS or SATA host bus adapter, 8Gb or 16Gb Fibre Channel, 10Gb or 40Gb Ethernet, or RAID controller PCIe card, and connects it to your computer through a thin cable.

The Echo Express SE I - Thunderbolt 3 Edition features 40Gbps Thunderbolt 3, 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 the most demanding, highest performance PCIe cards, support for connecting two 4K displays @ 60Hz or one 5K display @ 60Hz, and support for a vast array of Thunderbolt and USB devices, Thunderbolt 3 is a leap forward in every way.

One PCIe 3.0 Slot and Space for a Daughter Card

The Echo Express SE I - Thunderbolt 3 Edition features an x8 PCIe slot, and supports one half-length+, full-height, single- or double-width PCIe card. Double-width? Some pro video and audio interface cards, such as Blackmagic Design's DeckLink 4K Extreme, and RME's HDSPe MADI FX card, include a daughter card that mates with and provides additional external connections to the main card. The daughter card occupies the adjacent space without filling a PCIe slot.

Thunderbolt 3 - The USB C That Does It All

The Echo Express SE I - Thunderbolt 3 Edition includes two Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports; the first connects it 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 SE I 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 SE I also provides full support for connecting two 4K displays @ 60Hz or one 5K display@ 60Hz. For connected devices requiring extra power, 15 watts is provided to connected bus-powered devices.

Connect one Avid Pro Tools|HDX PCIe Card in your Echo Express III Expansion System (Thunderbolt 2 Editions only), xMac mini Server, or xMac Pro Server

This custom adapter cable connects the internal 6-pin PCIe power connector to your Pro Tools|HDX card's 4-pin power connector socket, delivering the auxiliary power the card needs to operate.

Connect a Low-Profile PCIe Card to Computers Without Expansion Slots

Shopping for a new computer? Small and thin is in-the latest ultra-light notebooks, small form factor, and all-in-one desktops are slender marvels of engineering. But, thinness comes with a cost-there's nowhere to install PCIe cards that provide additional connectivity and processing capabilities beyond a computer's standard ports. Thin Mac® and Windows® computers with Thunderbolt™ 3 ports still offer tremendous processing power, but for many, such as pros in the creative fields, onboard processing power alone is not enough. Fortunately, you don't have to limit your choices to desktop workstations-think external. Sonnet's Echo Express SEL - Thunderbolt 3 Edition enables you to connect a single low-profile PCIe card outside of the computer. Through its x8 PCIe 3.0 slot, this little Thunderbolt 3-to-PCIe card expansion chassis supports many Thunderbolt-compatible 16Gb and 8Gb Fibre Channel, 40Gb and 10 Gigabit Ethernet, video capture and processing, SAS and SATA host bus adapters, and RAID controller cards.

The Echo Express SEL - Thunderbolt 3 Edition features 40Gbps Thunderbolt 3, which offers double the speed and connectivity of Thunderbolt 2, and yields up to 2750 MB/s of PCIe 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.
