Sonnet SF3 Series – CFast 2.0 Pro Card Reader – Product Overview
The Sonnet SF3 Series - CFast 2.0 Pro Card Reader (SF3-2CFST) is a compact dual-slot Thunderbolt reader for professional CFast workflows.
Dual-Slot CFast Ingest
Two CFast slots support simultaneous transfer from two CFast or CFast 2.0 cards. Sonnet specifies aggregate ingest performance above 1000 MB/s when suitable media and host storage are used.
Thunderbolt Bandwidth
The high-bandwidth 40Gbps Thunderbolt interface supplies the PCIe throughput needed to read modern CFast media at supported speeds, avoiding the bottlenecks associated with slower USB readers.
Bus-Powered Operation
The reader draws power through its Thunderbolt connection and requires no separate power supply. A captive 0.5-metre Thunderbolt cable keeps the host connection with the reader and can be replaced through an approved service route if required.
Compact Professional Design
The rugged aluminium SF3 enclosure is designed for portable use, stacking and integration into DIT or production workflows where desk and cart space are limited.
Broad CFast Support
The reader supports CFast and CFast 2.0 media from major brands, subject to Sonnet's compatibility notes.
