Asus XG Station Pro Expansion Chassis
From laptop to workstation
ASUS XG Station Pro is the sleek, stylish dock that connects your Ultrabook® or other Thunderbolt™ 3-equipped notebook computer to a desktop graphics card. With XG Station Pro and a high-performance GPU you can render videos, run scientific models or build deep-learning applications ? it has all the performance you need. Co-designed with In Win, XG Station Pro looks great on any desk and, unlike other docks, has a powerful cooling system that drastically improves thermal performance.
All-new aluminum chassis
XG Station Pro features a totally redesigned aluminum chassis. Dressed in elegant Space Grey and carefully accented with pinhole ventilation and subtle logos, it's the perfect complement to modern premium notebooks. The finest industrial design favors both form and function, and XG Station Pro delivers in both respects. Despite its diminutive size, XG Station Pro will hold full-length, 2.5-slot graphics cards ? and because its side and top panels are easy to remove, installation is quick and effortless.
ASUS and In Win ingenuity, combined
To design XG Station Pro, ASUS collaborated closely with In Win - the well-known maker of premium computer chassis. Our engineers and designers created a device that is both functional and beautiful, with practical design elements and tasteful details. These include kink-resistant braided cabling, removable dust filters and, of course, In Win's signature aluminum metalworking.
Save desk space
Many external graphics docks employ internal power-supply units that add both bulk and heat - but not XG Station Pro. The all-new ASUS dock draws its power from a custom 330W external adapter. This greatly reduces the size of the dock, freeing up precious desk space. It also removes power-supply heat from the dock itself, and affords room for two large, efficient fans inside XG Station Pro.
Superior cooling, and silence
Dual 120mm exhaust fans are coupled with ample ventilation space, enabling XG Station Pro to deliver exceptional thermal performance that's easily tailored to your needs. Most eGPUs will rely on a static profile that spins fans at a constant RPM and doesn't offer any user control, but with XG Station Pro and an ASUS desktop graphics cards, fans of both devices can be independently controlled via the intuitive ASUS GPU Tweak II software - providing the ability to reduce noise output to 0dB during light loads.

One Stop Systems 13 Slot PCI Expansion
Need to upgrade your server or desktop computer? Got a small footprint computer and full-sized PCI cards? Don't want to lose your investment in pricey PCI cards that don't fit the new computer? Simply need more PCI slots or storage space? Are your full-sized, power-hungry, high-heat-generating PCI cards dragging your computer down? You can install practically any PCI card into the Magma PCI Expansion System and connect it to your new or old server or desktop computer through a variety of Magma host cards. The Magma 13 Slot PCI Expansion System is a 4U, rackmountable, chassis that allows you to plug-in up to thirteen (13) full-sized power-demanding PCI cards and up to four (4) 3.5" hard drives.
Increase I/O Capability
There are numerous performance and functionality hungry professionals that simply need more PCI slots than a typical computer provides. Even with the introduction of more robust desktop computers and servers, increased I/O capability is still required. If you have a powerful application that requires the use of several PCI cards, increase the number of PCI slots in your system with a Magma PCI Expansion System.
Flexible System
The use of computer specific host cards makes using your unique PCI cards and vital data as simple as "Plug & Play" because all you need to do is to connect the Magma PCI Expansion System to the host card for your computer and turn it on. Use the same PCI cards on your laptop as you do on your desktop or server - just add a Magma CardBus or ExpressCard and connect the cable. The auto-switching power supply even allows you to work internationally by simply adding a power cord plug adapter.
Configuration Control
Setting up your PCI cards and data in one chassis provides you an opportunity to use a consistent hardware configuration - regardless of what type of computer is available. Being able to "hit the ground running" is vital to every successful venture. Being able to use "the same PCI cards," regardless of location also reduces project risks.

Sonnet Echo Express SE I
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 CardThe 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 AllThe 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.
