HDMI 2.1, Thunderbolt 4, and USB 3.2 Gen 2
The built-in HDMI 2.1 port on the Echo 20 allows you to plug in an external display up to 8K @ 60 Hz directly. An HDMI adapter is not required to achieve max resolution. The Echo 20 also features three Thunderbolt 4 ports, one for connecting to your host device and the other two for directly connecting Thunderbolt peripherals and accessories. The two Thunderbolt 4 ports support USB4 and USB 3.2 devices and even provides up to 15W of power. Also available are four USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 and four USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 ports.
2.5 Gb Ethernet
Featuring 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet, the Echo 20 supports a 2.5 Gb/s link speed over common Cat 5e (or better) cabling when used with a compatible Ethernet switch or NAS with 2.5Gb Ethernet support. This saves you the trouble of having to invest in an Ethernet adapter. Need to connect to a switch without 2.5Gb Ethernet support? The Sonnet dock can also supports 1 Gb/s and 100 Mb/s link speeds.
M.2 SSD Slot
The built-in M.2 NVMe SSD slot enables you to add up to 8TB of SSD storage (sold separately) to your system without having to connect a storage device to your Echo 20 or upgrading your computer. Installing the SSD is easy and straightforward. Simply remove the two screws securing a bottom panel cover, insert the SSD, and reinstall the bottom cover with the two screws. Transfer and access data at up to 800 MB/s, and effortlessly store large files, media libraries, or your Time Machine backups.
