xMac Studio/Echo I
Professional 3U Rackmount Enclosure with One Slot Thunderbolt to PCIe Card Expansion System for Mac Studio
Designed for One PCIe Card Expansion - Connect a Speciality Audio or Video Card
For many creative professionals, PCIe card expansion is not an option - its a necessity for connecting specialty cards to handle audio and video post-production projects. xMac Studio is a rugged steel 3U rackmount enclosure for securing a Mac Studio with optional PCIe card expansion module in a rack, placing the Mac Studio behind a quick and easy to remove front panel. Sonnet designed the xMac Studio/Echo I for pro workflow flexibility; a rugged steel enclosure protects the Mac Studio while a one slot PCIe expansion module provides expansion for a PCIe card, including support for an Avid Pro Tools | HDX card.

Control and Connect - Easy Access to Mac Studio and PCIe Card Expansion Module
Convenient front panel operation allows you turn Mac Studio on with its own dedicated front power button, connect USB devices through a 4-port USB-A hub, and access the computer's front ports and SD card slots. Equipped with an Echo I PCIe Card Expansion Module, three rear panel locking thumbscrews allow you to easily pull out and access the module and PCIe card through the front without removing the front panel. xMac Studio's design enables you to connect and disconnect cables without needing to remove the Mac Studio from the enclosure.
An opening on top of xMac Studio ensures hindrance-free wireless signal access. The xMac Studio is designed to allow normal WiFi and Bluetooth wireless operation in most configurations (depending on rack type and position in rack), so you can use wireless devices and iOS® device control apps.
