Sonnet Twin25G Dual Port 25Gb PCIe Card (SFP28s included)

Twin25G PCIe Card
Dual-port 25 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe Card with Two SFP28 Transceivers
for Mac®, Windows®, or Linux® computers with PCIe card slots
Incredible 25GbE Connectivity

Many bandwidth-intensive workflows — including post-production shared storage workgroups — have reached a point where 10Gb Ethernet does not provide sufficient bandwidth and speed for optimum performance. Upgrading to 25Gb Ethernet is the smart choice — it offers greater performance and works with the same optical network infrastructure as 10GbE. Step up to the Sonnet Twin25G™ PCIe Card, an affordable and powerful solution for adding incredibly-fast fiber optic 25GbE network connectivity.
