Sonnet xMac Studio / Echo II DV T5 – Product Overview

The Sonnet xMac Studio / Echo II DV T5 (XMAC-STD-IIDVT5) is a professional 3U rackmount system that combines one Mac Studio with two independent high-bandwidth Thunderbolt 5 PCIe expansion paths.


Two Independent PCIe 4.0 Slots

The Echo II DV T5 module provides two x16 mechanical, x4 electrical PCIe 4.0 slots. Each slot has its own Thunderbolt 5 interface, allowing two bandwidth-intensive cards to operate without sharing a single Thunderbolt PCIe path.


Up To 6000 MB/s Per Slot

When connected to two independent Thunderbolt 5 ports on a suitable M4 Max or M3 Ultra Mac Studio, Sonnet specifies up to 6000 MB/s PCIe bandwidth to each slot simultaneously.


Mac Studio Control And Connectivity

The xMac Studio enclosure provides a front power button, four-port USB-A hub and direct access to the computer's front ports and SD card slot. The open rear keeps cable connections accessible.


400W Expansion Power

The Echo II DV T5 module includes a universal 400W power supply and two 6-pin auxiliary PCIe power connections providing up to 75W each for compatible cards.


Quiet Rackmount Cooling

Dual temperature-controlled Noctua fans in the expansion module are rated around 17 dBA, while the enclosure guides cool air through the Mac Studio and module from front to rear.


Integrated SSD Space

Space beneath the Mac Studio accommodates two compact Thunderbolt or USB SSDs, secured using the supplied adhesive-backed magnets.
