Sonnet xMac mini (2024+) 2U Rackmount System With Echo IIDV T5 Module

Pro Modular 2U Rackmount Plus Thunderbolt to PCIe Card Expansion Systems for Mac mini (2024+) - Optimized for Professional Workflow Expansion 

Maximize Your Workflow Connect Demanding Audio and Video Cards to Your Mac mini

The latest Mac mini delivers exceptional processing power, rivaling systems many times its size and cost. Yet in professional environments, raw performance alone isn’t enough—workflows often require secure rack mounting and expanded connectivity beyond what the Mac mini provides out of the box.

xMac mini (2024+) systems solve this challenge, seamlessly integrating one or two Mac minis into a rugged, compact 2U steel rackmount enclosure. Each system combines a dedicated computer mounting module with a Thunderbolt to PCIe card expansion module, delivering the connectivity, flexibility, and reliability demanded by today’s most intensive audio, video, and broadcast production workflows.

Control and Connect Easy Access to Mac minis and PCIe Card Expansion Module

xMac mini (2024+) keeps your Mac minis safely tucked away while providing easy-to-use power buttons for each one — so you can turn them on with just a press. Access is provided to the front ports on the mini mounted in front. A USB-C port provides a connection to the mini mounted in the rear, while a cable passthrough on the front panel enables connection of front computer’s USB connectors to the rear of the rack. The computer mounting and PCIe card expansion modules are secured with two rear panel thumbscrews each, enabling you to easily pull out and access the modules and installed computers and PCIe cards through the front of the enclosure. The xMac mini (2024+) design enables you to connect and disconnect cables without needing to remove the computers from the module.

Systems Tailored to Your Workflow.

For many creative professionals, connecting a Thunderbolt to PCIe card expansion system to their computer is essential for utilizing specialized hardware — such as audio I/O and DSP cards, video capture and playback cards, NVMe SSD storage, and other high-performance adapters – required for their demanding workflows. With a Sonnet preconfigured system, choose a configuration with the PCIe card expansion module that best fits your needs.

Prefer Options? Add Your Own Module.

xMac mini (2024+) enclosure system is available without a PCIe card expansion module, allowing you to install one later or use an Echo I, Echo II DV, or Echo III expansion module you may already own from an existing Sonnet Thunderbolt expansion system.
