Sonnet Allegro Pro USB-C 8-port PCIe Card [Thunderbolt compatible]

Professional 8-Port USB-C Connectivity

The Sonnet Allegro Pro USB-C 8-port PCIe Card is a high-performance solution designed for professionals requiring massive data throughput. By adding eight 10Gbps USB-C ports to your Mac Pro, Windows, or Linux computer, this card eliminates bottlenecks in demanding digital workflows.

Four Independent Controllers for Maximum Speed

Unlike standard USB cards that share bandwidth across all ports, the Allegro Pro features four independent USB 3.2 controllers and an x8 PCIe 3.0 bridge chip. This advanced architecture ensures each port supports data transfers at up to 1000 MB/s, even when multiple high-speed NVMe SSD drives are active simultaneously.

Reliable Power and Universal Compatibility

• Bus-Powered Support: Each port delivers up to 7.5W of power, supporting SSDs, SSD RAIDs, and hard drives without the need for external power supplies.
• Thunderbolt Ready: Fully compatible with Thunderbolt to PCIe card expansion systems, making it an ideal upgrade for MacBook Pro and iMac users.
• Spaced Port Design: The physical layout is optimized to allow eight simultaneous cable connections, including USB-C to USB-A adapters.
