Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) 40Gbps Interface

Designed to feature Thunderbolt™ 3 interface (40Gb/s) capable of providing PCIe bandwidth up to 2750 MB/s, 2x times Thunderbolt 2, for diverse professional PCIe cards such as video transcoding and video capture that primarily require higher throughput of data transfer rate to the host computer.

Thunderbolt™ 3 40 Gbps
Thunderbolt™ 2 20 Gbps
Thunderbolt™ 1 10 Gbps
USB3.1 Gen2 10 Gbps
USB3.1 Gen1 5 Gbps

Dual Thunderbolt 3 Ports - The USB C That Does It All

Through the dual Thunderbolt™ 3 (USB-C) ports, users can have the first port to computer while the second port to daisy-chain of up to five additional Thunderbolt peripheral devices with two 4K displays or one 5K display being positioned at the very end of the chain. USB 3.1 Gen 2 (10Gbps) is supported as well: connecting one USB device to the second port for application is applicable.

Just Cooling Where your Card Needs

Built with one position movable 8x8 cm speed-adjustable fan cooler at enclosure's side, users can at any time by shifting cooler's position to have the best airflow ventilation to the video card based on each card's length design and card's fan/blower location.
