OWC Thunderbolt 4 10G Ethernet Adapter Mac / PC / 10GbE / Thunderbolt 4 For 10Gb/s, 5Gb/s, 2.5Gb/s, 1Gb/s, and 100Mb/s network connections The Portable Ethernet Supercharger Engage Warp Speed File Transfers Anywhere Add warp speed bus-powered file transfers to your workflow by connecting the OWC Thunderbolt 10G Ethernet Adapter to your Thunderbolt 3/4/5 or USB4 Mac or PC. Now you can access 10GBASE-T 10Gb Ethernet networks and other devices, such as a Network Attached Storage (NAS) system, to transfer large multimedia files at over 900MB/s real-world speed. While improving project efficiency and workgroup collaboration with the quickest network connection available, this adapter is also backwards compatible with other Ethernet standards including 5GBASE-T, 2.5GBASE-T, 1000BASE-T, and 100BASE-Tx. Bottleneck-Free Editing Collaboration For post-production to work at maximum efficiency, multiple editors need to collaborate and work as a team. Keep projects on schedule and under budget with the OWC Thunderbolt 10G Ethernet Adapter by giving multiple editing workstations the bandwidth needed for sharing and editing data intensive creative content like video, animation, and graphics. Now editing can take place directly from files on a shared RAID storage device or NAS such as the OWC Jupiter Mini or OWC Jupiter Callisto, without the time waste of downloading files to individual workstations. For teams using an OWC Jellyfish shared storage system, each editor can connect via their own OWC Thunderbolt 10G Ethernet Adapter to maximize throughput and ensure seamless playback and editing performance. Advanced users can even connect multiple adapters to a single machine and utilize link aggregation to unlock even greater bandwidth (20-40Gbps) when working with ultra-high-resolution footage or multicam projects. Ideal for Ethernet Limited Computers The OWC Thunderbolt 10G Ethernet Adapter opens a world of high-performance network connectivity to Thunderbolt 3/4/5 and USB4 notebook computers that lack built-in Ethernet connectivity and to desktop machines handcuffed by the standard old and slow 1GbE port. Maximizes SOHO Networks It’s become common for budget-constrained yet performance-oriented creative professionals in small or home offices seeking to connect to a 2.5Gb/s-5Gb/s equipped router or switch without incurring the extra expense of a full 10Gb Ethernet network. Unfortunately, these pros are often limited to Gigabit Ethernet (1Gb/s) speed by their computer. By simply adding the OWC Thunderbolt 10G Ethernet Adapter to their machine, photographers, videographers, musicians, and other content creators can now enjoy greater signal reliability, stability, and security with up to 5x faster speed on 2.5-5Gb/s networks and up to 10x faster speed on 10Gb Ethernet networks. Dramatically Increases Performance and ROI of Existing Network With an ideal combination of affordability and performance, most wired local area networks installed over the past two decades utilize Cat 5e or Cat 6 copper cabling. Unfortunately, these setups are limited to a maximum 1Gb/s speed. Thanks to its built-in 2.5GBASE-T and 5GBASE-T technology (formerly NBASE-T), the OWC Thunderbolt 10G Ethernet Adapter can deliver up to 5Gb/s speed over existing cabling for up to a 500% performance increase and maximum infrastructure ROI. Built for Optimum Network and CPU Performance The OWC Thunderbolt 10G Ethernet Adapter achieves its blazing fast transfer speed and keeps your computer performing at peak because it was built with advanced features such as flow control and 64-bit address support; TCP, UDP, and IPv4 checksum offloading; and TSO, LRO, and RSS stateless offloads. Runs Silently Cool with Rugged and Efficient Portability Featuring a unique ventilated design that maximizes airflow, the OWC Thunderbolt 10G Ethernet Adapter’s rugged aluminum housing works as a heat sink to operate silently cool without needing a fan. The adapter draws its power from the Thunderbolt port with Energy-Efficient Ethernet support for low computer power use and no AC adapter needed. Further complementing its portable potential is a rubber sleeve to keep the OWC Adapter safe from bumps and bruises when thrown into a notebook or gear bag. Existing Cable Compatible When you need to access an older or even state-of-the-art network, the Thunderbolt 4 10G Ethernet Adapter’s RJ45 socket will connect you to a wide range of existing cabling infrastructures ranging from Cat 5 to Cat 7. Cat 5 - Up to 1Gb/s at lengths up to 100 meters Cat 5e - Up to 2.5Gb/s at lengths up to 100 meters Cat 6 - Up to 10Gb/s at lengths up to 55 meters (up to 5Gb/s up to 100 meters) Cat6a - Up to 10Gb/s at lengths up to 100 meters Cat 7 - Up to 10Gb/s at lengths up to 100 meter Pro Audio Video AVB Ready Time-sensitive data such as audio and video media streams require Audio Video Bridging (IEEE 802.1Qav, AVB) ready gear. No sweat…with the OWC Thunderbolt 10G Ethernet Adapter, you can stream high volumes of high-quality data in real-time to multiple destinations with very low latency over existing network cable. Access Your Work and Home Computers Anytime, Anywhere Thanks to network Wake-on-LAN support, you can easily wake a hibernated Windows or sleeping Mac computer for remote system management, program use, and stored file access. With the right configuration — such as a wired Ethernet connection and port forwarding — you can even wake your computer over the internet. Now instead of having an “always on” system wasting energy and your hard-earned money, you can keep a work or home computer in a low power state of readiness that’s accessible anytime from your local network or remotely with proper setup. Notes Up to 900MB/s speed may vary due to a variety of factors including computer configuration, network condition, and network configuration. Windows or Linux systems require an Ethernet driver. Requires AVB compatible switch/router. 5Gb/s and 2.5Gb/s speeds require an NBASE-T (IEEE 802.3bz) compatible switch/router.
