Rising demand for faster data transfer speeds and increased bandwidth on high-performance shared storage networks has fueled the rapid growth of 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) adoption. However, most computers still lack built-in support for this ultra-fast connectivity. Twin10G™ Thunderbolt Adapter offers a powerful yet straightforward and cost-effective way to add blazing-fast, dual-port 10GBASE-T 10GbE network connectivity to your system. It works seamlessly with Apple M series Macs, Intel Macs with Thunderbolt 3 ports, and Windows or Linux PCs equipped with Thunderbolt 5 or Thunderbolt 4 ports.
Twin10G adapter is equipped with two RJ45 ports, enabling it to connect to 10GbE infrastructure via inexpensive Cat 6 or Cat 6A copper cabling at distances up to 55 or 100 meters, respectively.
Simply powerful way to add dual RJ45 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports to your computer with Thunderbolt ports.
Connects to 10GbE infrastructure via inexpensive Cat 6 or Cat 6A cables at distances up to 55 or 100 meters, respectively.
Configure the adapter's settings using operating system tools.
Enough PCIe bandwidth to support two 10Gb ports at full speed.
On back panel of Twin10G, one Thunderbolt port connects to computer; second port supports daisy-chaining of additional Thunderbolt peripheral devices.
Rugged aluminum enclosure is compact enough to sit on most any work surface, and quiet enough for use in noise-sensitive environments.
Keeps your computer connected in case a single cable is disconnected or one of the ports fails.
Increases throughput beyond what a single connection can sustain (Windows and Linux).
Optimized to meet VMWare’s highest level of endorsement.
Supports all M series Macs and Intel Macs with Thunderbolt 3 ports.
Supports Windows computers with Thunderbolt 5 or Thunderbolt 4 ports.
Supports Linux computers with Thunderbolt 5 or Thunderbolt 4 ports.
Founded in 1986 in Orange County, Southern California — long recognized as a vibrant hub of technology and engineering — Sonnet has been at the forefront of innovation for nearly four decades. We’ve introduced award-winning products that expand performance and connectivity for Mac, Windows, and other industry-standard computers. Many of our team members have been with us for more than 20 years, bringing unmatched expertise across both current and legacy products. Should you ever need technical support, you can count on our knowledgeable staff to provide the help you need.
How simple? Just connect Twin10G adapter to your computer via the included 40Gbps Thunderbolt cable, download and install a driver, connect the adapter to the network switch or directly to 10GbE-enabled storage via Cat 6 or Cat 6A cables, and configure the adapter’s settings through the macOS Network control panel, Windows Device Manager, or Linux command line (or graphical utility).
Twin10G adapter attains its high throughput performance and low host-CPU utilization through functions such as flow control, 64-bit address support for systems using more than 4GB of physical memory; and stateless offloads such as TCP, UDP and IPv4 checksum offloading. These processes enable your computer to perform better while large files transfers or high I/O operations take place. This Sonnet adapter’s dual 10GbE connections support transparent failover to keep your computer connected in case a single cable is disconnected or one of the ports fails. Windows and Linux also support link aggregation (teaming) for increased throughput!
Many Sonnet Thunderbolt products featuring Thunderbolt ports come equipped with threaded mounting holes to securely attach a Sonnet ThunderLok connector lock, preventing Thunderbolt cables from accidentally disconnecting.
Sonnet Thunderbolt products feature a high-speed Thunderbolt interface that delivers PCIe bandwidth needed to support data transfers at full speed.
