Sonnet xMac Studio/Echo III Module

Your Workflow expanded and secured

A Mac Studio delivers phenomenal processing power, outperforming computers multiple times its size and price - it also provide a lot of ports to connect things. But how do you incorporate a Mac Studio into off-the-desk professional workflows

Sonnet xMac Studio integrates a Mac Studio into a compact rackmount enclosure with an optional PCIe card expansion module to support diverse audio and video application needs

Designed for Expansion Connect Specialty Audio and Video Cards

For many creative professionals, PCIe card expansion for connecting specialty cards to handle audio and video post-production projects is not an option - it's a necessity! Sonnet designed the xMac Studio for pro workflow flexibility; choose a system configured with a Thunderbolt to PCIe card expansion module that best suits your needs. xMac Studio is also available without a module so you can add one at a later date, or use one of your existing compatible Sonnet expansion modules.
