Product information

Description

The Sonnet Echo Express SEL (Thunderbolt 3 Edition) is a compact external PCIe expansion enclosure that lets you connect a single low-profile PCIe 3.0 card to computers without internal expansion slots via a Thunderbolt 3 connection. With an x8 PCIe 3.0 slot and 40Gbps Thunderbolt 3 throughput, it supports a range of cards including 16Gb and 8Gb Fibre Channel, 40Gb and 10Gb Ethernet, video capture and processing, SAS/SATA host bus adapters, and RAID controllers. The chassis measures approximately 103 mm x 210 mm x 72.8 mm and weighs 0.84 kg, offering a small-footprint solution for adding high-performance PCIe functionality to thin laptops and small-form-factor desktops.

Advantages

The unit provides up to 2750 MB/s of PCIe bandwidth over Thunderbolt 3, enabling full performance for demanding cards such as 16Gb Fibre Channel and dual-port 10GbE, and supporting 4K video capture and processing at high frame rates. It includes two Thunderbolt 3 ports — one for the host connection and one for daisy-chaining additional Thunderbolt devices — plus USB 3.1 Gen 2 compatibility on the second port and 15 W bus-power support for connected devices. The aluminum enclosure, temperature-controlled variable-speed fan, and quiet airflow design protect installed cards while maintaining low noise during operation. A 0.5 m Thunderbolt 3 cable and a ThunderLok 3 retainer clip are included for secure connection to the chassis.

Suitable for

Adding a single low-profile PCIe 3.0 card to laptops and compact desktops
Connecting high-speed networking cards (10GbE / 40GbE) and Fibre Channel adapters
Using external video capture or processing PCIe cards for 4K workflows
Attaching SAS/SATA host bus adapters or RAID controller cards

Key specifications

PCIe slot: x8 PCIe 3.0 (low-profile card support)
Max PCIe bandwidth: up to ~2750 MB/s
Dimensions (W×D×H): 103 mm × 210 mm × 72.8 mm (approx. 4 × 8.4 × 2.8 in)
Weight: 0.84 kg
Material: Aluminum chassis
Included accessories: 0.5 m Thunderbolt 3 cable, ThunderLok 3 retainer, AC power cable
Operating displays: supports two 4K @ 60Hz or one 5K @ 60Hz when connected

How to use

Install a compatible low-profile PCIe card into the x8 PCIe 3.0 slot following the card manufacturer’s instructions and secure it inside the chassis. Connect the Echo Express SEL to your Thunderbolt 3-equipped computer using the included 0.5 m Thunderbolt 3 cable and, if desired, use the ThunderLok 3 clip to secure the cable to the chassis. Plug in the AC power cable; the enclosure will power on and off automatically with your computer. If required, daisy-chain additional Thunderbolt devices from the second Thunderbolt 3 port, or connect USB devices using the appropriate cable or adapter to the secondary port.

Usage recommendations

Use ThunderLok 3 to prevent accidental disconnects; ensure your PCIe card is supported on your host operating system (compatible with macOS and Windows versions specified by the card and Sonnet). Allow adequate ventilation around the enclosure and keep firmware and drivers for your PCIe card and host computer up to date for optimal performance.
