Sonnet Technologies Sonnet Solo10G SFP+ Fiber 10000 Mbit/s SON-SOLO10G-SFP-T3

10GB Ethernet Thunderbolt 3 Adapter
BLAZING-FAST 10GBASE-SR CONNECTIVITY AT A BREAKTHROUGH PRICE
Technical advances plus cheaper gear have enabled creators to capture and output more content than ever at 4K and higher resolutions. The resulting files are larger too. When moving all that data between your computer and networked storage a simple Gigabit Ethernet connection can negatively impact your productivity. For post-production shared storage workgroups and other bandwidth-intensive workflows you need more speed—10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) is the new data transfer standard. Affordable switches have lowered costs for setting up 10GbE infrastructure; however the price of adding fiber optic client connectivity has remained high. Now there is an equally affordable 10GbE interface for your Mac? or Windows?(1) computer with Thunderbolt™ 3 ports—Sonnet’s Solo10G™ SFP+ Thunderbolt 3 Edition adapter a powerfully simple solution for adding blazing-fast fiber optic 10GbE network connectivity at a breakthrough price.

The Solo10G SFP+ Thunderbolt 3 Edition adapter includes a 10GBASE-SR (short-range) SFP+ transceiver (the most commonly-used optical transceiver) enabling you to connect your computer to 10GbE infrastructure via LC optical cable (optical cables sold separately) at distances up to 300 meters.

SAFE AND SECURE
As a networked conduit into your computer the Solo10G SFP+ adapter was designed with essential security features. Incorporating encryption in hardware the Sonnet adapter is protected against malicious modification of its firmware. Any unauthorized attempt at firmware modification to facilitate surreptitious computer access would render the adapter inoperable. This secure design prevents the Solo10G adapter’s firmware from being reprogrammed except by a manufacturer’s update using a secure encryption key.

REPLACEABLE CAPTIVE CABLE
Through the use of a captive cable the Solo10G SFP+ adapter’s Thunderbolt connector remains firmly connected to it at all times. Should the cable ever break it can easily be replaced with an approved replacement cable available from Sonnet or a Sonnet-authorized reseller.

ADVANCED FEATURES INTELLIGENT OPERATION
The Solo10G SFP+ Thunderbolt 3 Edition adapter attains its high throughput performance and low host-CPU utilization through functions such as flow control 64-bit address support for systems using more than 4GB of physical memory; and stateless offloads such as TCP UDP and IPv4 checksum offloading. These processes enable your computer to perform better while large files transfers or high I/O operations take place. This Sonnet adapter also supports the Energy-Efficient Ethernet standard (IEEE 802.3az) which reduces the adapter’s power demands on your computer.

ADDITIONAL SFP+ TRANSCEIVER CHOICES
Sonnet includes a short-range multi-mode fiber SFP+ module (up to 300 meters) part number G10E-SFP-SR with the Solo10G
