Description

Connect Three Full-height, Half-length+ PCIe Cards to Computers with Thunderbolt 3 Ports Although thin Mac, Windows and Linux computers with Thunderbolt 3 ports offer processing power to spare, for many (such as pros in the creative fields) onboard processing power alone is not enough. Sonnet's Echo Express SE III is a compact, desktop Thunderbolt 3 to PCIe card expansion system that enables you to connect three professional PCIe cards at the same time to any computer with Thunderbolt 3 ports.
