Son网 Announces Breakthrough-Priced Thunderbolt 2 to 10 Gigabit Ether网 Adapter

Son网 Technologies today announced the Solo10G™ Thunderbolt™ 2 Edition 适配器, the latest product in the company's comprehensive array of single- and dual-port 10 Gigabit Ether网 (10GbE) 网work 适配器s. Solo10G 适配器s add super-fast 10GbE 网work connectivity to a wide range of computers, enabling users to easily connect to 10GbE-enabled 网work infrastructure and storage systems using the 10GbE standard.

它的作用: 
测量紧凑型3.1英寸宽乘4英寸宽.5英寸深1.1 inches tall and featuring an extruded aluminum enclosure, the Solo10G Thunderbolt 2 Edition is a compact, 崎岖的, fanless 适配器 for Mac® and Windows® computers with Thunderbolt 2 ports. Equipped with a single RJ45 port, the 适配器 enables 10GbE connectivity via inexpensive CAT 6 or CAT 6A copper cabling at distances of up to 55 or 100 meters, 分别. The 适配器 connects to a single Thunderbolt 2 port on the computer and is bus-powered for convenient, 节能, 便携式操作.

为什么重要: 
The Solo10G Thunderbolt 2 Edition is the simplest and lowest cost external solution yet for adding 10GbE 网work connectivity to computers equipped with older Thunderbolt technology, 包括Mac Pro®6,1. The Son网 适配器 offers Mac users a plug-and-play experience with no driver installation required; Windows use only requires a simple driver installation. The product is configured using operating system settings, so there's no separate management program to install or run.

The Solo10G 适配器 also supports NBASE-T™ (multigigabit) technology, the recent Ether网 standard that enables 2.5Gbps and 5Gbps speeds on existing CAT 5e (and better) cabling at distances of up to 100 meters. This capability enables organizations with older infrastructure to simply update to multigigabit Ether网 switches and to use Son网's Solo10G 适配器 to boost 网work transmission speeds up to 500% without the need to rewire.

独特之处: 
不像许多10GbE适配器, the Solo10G Thunderbolt 2 Edition's enclosure was designed to passively cool the circuitry within, eliminating the need for a fan and enabling silent operation.

The Solo10G Thunderbolt 2 Edition is by far the lowest cost Thunderbolt 2 10Gb Ether网 适配器 available today.

和其他Solo10G产品一样, the Solo10G Thunderbolt 2 Edition was engineered with security features essential to today's users. Incorporating encryption in hardware, the Son网 网work 适配器 is protected against malicious firmware modification. Any unauthorized attempt to modify the firmware to enable covert computer access renders it inoperable. These security features prevent the Solo10G 适配器 from being reprogrammed, except by a manufacturer's update using a secure encryption key.

当你能得到它: 
The Solo10G Thunderbolt 2 Edition 适配器 (part number SOLO10G-TB2) is available now at the suggested retail price of $199.
