These operations enable your computer to perform better while large files transfers or high I\/O operations take place. This Sonnet adapter’s dual 10GbE connections support transparent failover to keep your computer connected in case a single cable is disconnected or one of the ports fails, and also support link aggregation for increased throughput!\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompact and Nearly Noiseless\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003eSmall enough to easily fit in most workspaces, the Twin 10G SFP+ Thunderbolt 3 adapter is still large enough to support proper airflow inside the case—its design enables the adapter’s temperature-controlled, variable-speed fan to keep the adapter running cool and whisper-quiet at all times, making it suitable for use in noise-sensitive environments.

The Sonnet adapter 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 Twin 10G 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.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eThunderbolt 3 (40Gbps) Cable and ThunderLok™ 3 Included\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003eSonnet includes a 0.5-meter Thunderbolt 3 cable to connect the Twin 10G SFP+ Thunderbolt 3 Edition to your computer, and a Sonnet ThunderLok 3 Thunderbolt connector retainer clip to secure the cable to the adapter. Accidental cable disconnects can lead to data loss, but Sonnet’s ThunderLok 3 helps prevent them, securing the Thunderbolt cable to the adapter. ThunderLok 3 is easy to install and use—just slide it over one of the cable’s connectors, plug in the connector, and then secure it to the adapter by turning a thumbscrew. Because ThunderLok doesn’t attach to the connector, it remains on the cable and won’t get lost when not in use.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003csub\u003eConnect computer to one port on the Twin 10G SFP+ Thunderbolt 3 Edition and daisy chain up to 5 additional Thunderbolt devices (plus two 4K monitors, one 5K display, or one USB 3.0 device)\u003c\/sub\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Sonnet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47123714408676,"sku":"SON-TWIN10GC-TB3","price":586.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0707\/4647\/2676\/files\/SON-TWIN10GC-TB3_4d6d7c2c-19b0-494f-88ab-9071e1d0009e.jpg?v=1764769814","url":"https:\/\/progear-website.myshopify.com\/products\/sonnet-twin-10g-thunderbolt-3-edition","provider":"Progear-website","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
