Before you settle for slower data transfer speeds and limited bandwidth, consider the Twin 10G Thunderbolt 3 to Dual-Port 10 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter. This high-performance adapter is designed to meet the growing demand for faster data transfer speeds and increased bandwidth, especially for high-definition video editing on shared storage systems.
This dual-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet adapter offers ten times the performance of the standard Gigabit Ethernet, the most common wired network connection today. It's the perfect solution for adding lightning-fast 10GBASE-T 10GbE network connectivity to any Mac or Windows computer equipped with Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports.
The Twin 10G Thunderbolt 3 Edition adapter comes with two RJ45 ports, allowing it to connect to 10GbE infrastructure via cost-effective CAT-6 or CAT-6A copper cabling. It can reach distances up to 55 or 100 meters, respectively, making it a versatile and practical choice for various networking needs.
The adapter's setup is straightforward and can be configured through the macOS Network control panel or Windows Device Manager. It supports Transparent Failover, ensuring your computer stays connected even if a single cable is disconnected or one of the ports fails. It also supports Link Aggregation (Teaming), which can increase throughput beyond what a single connection can sustain in certain applications.
Despite its power, the Twin 10G Thunderbolt 3 Edition adapter is compact and nearly noiseless, making it suitable for use in noise-sensitive environments. Its rugged aluminum housing provides robust and secure protection for the inner circuitry.
The adapter features two Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports. The first port connects the adapter to your computer, while the second port supports daisy-chaining of up to five additional Thunderbolt devices to your computer. It also allows for the connection of a single USB peripheral device or up to two 4K displays or one 5K display.
The Twin 10G Thunderbolt 3 Edition adapter comes with a 0.5-meter Thunderbolt 3 (40Gbps) cable and a ThunderLok 3 Thunderbolt connector retainer clip. This clip secures the cable to the adapter, preventing accidental disconnections that could lead to data loss.
In summary, the Twin 10G Thunderbolt 3 to Dual-Port 10 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter is a powerful, cost-effective, and easy-to-use solution for enhancing your computer's network connectivity. It's the perfect choice for professionals who demand high-speed data transfer and reliable connectivity.
