A new lineup of Thunderbolt 5 products, including desktop and rackmount PCIe card expansion systems, docking stations, and rackmount solutions for Apple Mac mini and Mac Studio, is on show at IBC2026 from Sonnet.
This includes the debut of its Twin25G T5 Thunderbolt 5 adapter, which adds 25GbE fibre connectivity to Thunderbolt and USB4 computers. Designed for professionals working with shared storage, media servers and high-speed network infrastructure, the adapter enables computers without internal PCIe slots to connect to 25GbE networks and storage systems.
Sonnet is also introducing the Solo10G T5 Thunderbolt 5 adapter, a bus-powered 10Gb Ethernet Thunderbolt 5 adapter. Consuming 7.5W, the Solo10G T5 enables Thunderbolt 5 computers to connect to 10Gb Ethernet networks over standard Cat 6 or Cat 6A copper cabling.
A pair of new Thunderbolt 5 docking stations are also on display: the Echo 20 Thunderbolt 5 SecureDock and Echo 21 Thunderbolt 5 SuperDock.
The Sonnet stand also features its xMac Studio/Echo II DV T5 3U rackmount system, xMac mini (2024+)/Echo II DV T5 2U rackmount system and Breakaway Box 850 T5 Thunderbolt 5 eGPU for Windows 11 computers.
