Sonnet Solo10G SFP+ (Ethernet 1-Port PCIe Card (including SFP+ [SR])

More content is captured and captured in 4K and higher resolutions, made possible by cheaper hardware as well as advances in technology. The resulting files are larger than ever before. For post-production shared storage workgroups and other bandwidth-intensive workflows, 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) has become the new data transfer standard.

While very affordable 10GbE switches have helped to significantly reduce the expense of installing 10GbE infrastructure, the price of adding customer connectivity – especially fiber optic links – has remained a barrier for some. Now, an equally affordable 10GbE interface for desktop and workstation computers - Sonnet's Solo10G™ SFP+ PCIe® Card, a powerful simple solution for adding blazing fast fiber optic 10GbE network connectivity to Mac®, Windows® and Linux® computers please at a confident price .
