Sonnet Solo10G SFP+ V2 Single-port Optical 10 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe Card

About: Sonnet Solo10G SFP+ V2 Single-port Optical 10 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe Card

As needs for faster data transfer speeds and greater bandwidth grow — especially for tasks such as 4K video editing, and storing files to and retrieving them from high performance shared storage — 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) connectivity has become a necessity. For many users, the 10Gb Ethernet network infrastructure of choice is optical 10Gb Ethernet, delivering ten times the performance of the standard Gigabit Ethernet most computers offer and greater transmission reliability over long distances. Sonnet makes it easy to add cost-effective 10GbE fiber optic connectivity to your Mac Pro, Windows, or Linux computer or server — check out Solo10G SFP+ V2 PCIe Card.​
