- The OWC spring combines two 10gbe ports in a 20 Gbps virtual link through aggregation
- It also offers Thunderbolt 5, 2.5gbe Ethernet and 8K screen support
- Runs in an aluminum enclosure without fan designed for a quiet and cold operation
Another world computer science has launched a Thunderbolt 5 coupling station that adopts a different approach to high -speed connectivity.
Its 10GBE dual lan ports can be combined in a single 20 Gbps virtual link, offering performance that no other Dock currently provides.
The OWC Thunderbolt 5 Dual 10Gbe Network Dock is aimed at professionals who work with storage environments or multiple networks. It brings together two 10gbe ports, a 2.5gbe port, three Thunderbolt 5 and four USB connections, replacing the need for multiple adapters.
A smarter, faster and cleaner way to connect everything
It is also compatible with device chaining, the connection of up to three 8K screens and runs on an aluminum enclosure without a fan for quiet operation.
“Our goal has always been to eliminate friction that slows professionals or gets in the way to do their job,” said Larry O’Connor, founder and CEO of OWC.
“With the 10gbe network of Thunderbolt 5, we are giving creatives, IT equipment and electrical users a more intelligent, faster and cleanest way to connect everything they need, without the disaster of additional adapters or speed commitments.”
The ability to unite the two 10GBE ports through the aggregation of links is what makes this dock stand out.
When connected to the network compatible storage, OWC says that users can reach transfer speeds of up to 20 Gbps, which can reduce workflow delays that require access to shared media or multiple networks.
The performance claims are from the company, and we will have to wait for the first reviews to see what the real world speeds are like.
“Thunderbolt 5 opens completely new possibilities for creative and production workflows, and the new OWC spring really shows that. When combining Thunderbolt 5 waters with additional USB connectivity, it gives professionals the flexibility of connecting everything they need without obligation,” said Ben Hacker, general manager, client connectivity, Intel.
“And for teams that work with high performance NAS solutions such as the OWC jellyfish, this is a change of play: unlock bandwidth and response capacity they have been waiting for collaborative videos and workflows.”
The OWC Thunderbolt 5 Dual 10Gbe Network Dock is now available, with a price of $ 499.
