Sonnet Echo 13 Thunderbolt 5 SSD Dock - 4TB

About: Sonnet Echo 13 Thunderbolt 5 SSD Dock - 4TB

Sonnet Echo 13 Thunderbolt 5 SSD Dock delivers next level storage performance — 6000 MB/s with Thunderbolt 5 computers, 3400 MB/s when used with a Thunderbolt 4 or 3 computer — with 4TB of pre-installed Kingston M.2 NVMe SSD storage. Connections? Echo 13 has you covered with four Thunderbolt 5 ports, four USB-A ports, one 2.5Gb Ethernet, one headphone jack, SD and microSD card slots, plus 8K display support.

Plug In Your Peripherals and Power Your Computer with One Thunderbolt 5 Cable

Connect your Thunderbolt devices, monitor(s), USB peripherals, and Ethernet cable to the dock and then link them all to your computer with a single Thunderbolt cable. Got a laptop computer? Echo 13 Thunderbolt 5 SSD Dock will even power it with up to 140W of charging power. When it is time to leave, just unplug the Thunderbolt cable, grab your computer, and go.

Thunderbolt 5: Tomorrow’s Performance. Today.

Echo 13 Thunderbolt 5 SSD Dock features the connections you expect from a Thunderbolt dock plus the ridiculously fast SSD storage you need. Transform a single cable connection from your computer into three Thunderbolt 5 peripheral ports. With up to 80Gb/s of bi-directional data speed — twice as fast as Thunderbolt 4 — and up to 120Gb/s for higher display bandwidth, you'll revolutionize your productivity.

Ridiculously Fast M.2 NVMe Internal SSD Storage 

The built-in M.2 NVMe SSD adds an additional 4TB Thunderbolt 5 certified Kingston PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD storage capacity to your system without the need to connect another device to the Echo dock or the computer. Access data at up to 6000 MB/s — ideal for pro content creation and application storage — and effortlessly store large files, media libraries, or your Time Machine backups.

Faster Ethernet Transfers Across Existing Cabling

Featuring 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet, Echo 13 Thunderbolt 5 SSD Dock supports 2.5Gb/s link speed over common Cat 5e (or better) cabling when used with a compatible Ethernet switch or NAS with 2.5Gb Ethernet support, saving you the cost of another adapter. You can get great performance gains — 250 percent the speed of Gigabit Ethernet — without rewiring! In case you’re connecting to a switch or NAS without 2.5Gb Ethernet support, the Sonnet dock also supports 1Gb/s and 100Mb/s link speeds.

Speedy 10Gbps USB Ports for Bus-powered Devices

Echo 13 Thunderbolt 5 SSD Dock features three USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10Gbps) Type A ports — one on the front, two on the back— to support super-fast USB NVMe SSDs at up to full speed. And unlike some other docks, the Echo 13 doesn’t skimp on power either — each port provides up to 7.5W, ensuring bus-powered devices will operate without fail.

Thunderbolt Certified for Mac, Windows and Chromebook Computers, and iPad Pro Tablets

Echo 13 Thunderbolt 5 SSD Dock is certified for use with Apple M series Mac computers; Thunderbolt 3 Intel Mac computers; Thunderbolt 5 and most Thunderbolt 4 Windows computers; Thunderbolt 5 and 4 Chromebook computers; and M series iPad Pro tablets. See Tech Specs for current computer and OS compatibility information.

Display Options: Thunderbolt Port Connections – Connect 8K or Three 4K Monitors

Depending on your computer’s video capability, the Echo dock’s Thunderbolt ports can support one (always 4K, 5K or 6K) monitor, two 8K monitors, or up to three 4K monitors; see Tech Specs. You can plug in Thunderbolt 3, 4 and 5 or USB-C monitors directly. Or, you may connect other display types (HDMI, DisplayPort, etc.) by using a Thunderbolt-compatible adapter (solds separately).

Charge Your Laptop Without Its Power Adapter

Connected to your portable computer with the included Thunderbolt 5 cable, Echo 13 Thunderbolt 5 SSD Dock provides up to 140W of power (Power Delivery), meaning it can power and charge your computer while connected, even when not in use, allowing you to leave your computer’s power adapter packed away.
