Connect Three Full-length PCIe Cards to Computers with Thunderbolt 2 Ports

For pros working in the creative fields, a computer’s processing power alone is not enough to get the job done. Prime examples include notebook and all-in-one desktop computers that lack PCIe expansion slots necessary to support specialty cards that connect pro video and audio inputs, transcode data, and connect to high-speed storage and networks. Sonnet’s Echo™ Express III-D is a pro-level desktop Thunderbolt™ 2 to PCIe card expansion system that enables you to connect three full-length PCIe cards at the same time to your computer through a single cable.
