Sonnet SF3 Series – AJA PAK Media Pro Card Reader – Product Overview
The Sonnet SF3 Series - AJA PAK Media Pro Card Reader (SF3-2AJAPK) is a professional dual-slot Thunderbolt media reader developed for high-speed AJA PAK ingest workflows.
Dual-Slot AJA PAK Ingest
Two AJA PAK Media slots allow footage to be copied from two cards at the same time. Sonnet specifies aggregate transfer performance up to 1030 MB/s, helping shorten ingest times on demanding productions.
40Gbps Thunderbolt Interface
The reader uses a high-bandwidth Thunderbolt interface with four lanes of PCIe bandwidth, giving AJA PAK media the throughput needed to operate at its supported speeds.
Stackable And Rackable
The rugged aluminium chassis is designed to stack with other SF3 Series readers. Threaded mounting points also allow two readers to be secured side-by-side in 1U using the appropriate Sonnet rack tray.
Daisy-Chain Connectivity
Two Thunderbolt ports allow one connection to the host computer while the second supports additional Thunderbolt devices or other SF3 readers in a daisy chain.
Professional Production Compatibility
The reader supports all AJA PAK Media cards, including PAK 2000, PAK 1000, PAK 512 and PAK 256, and is compatible with supported Mac and Windows Thunderbolt systems.
