Solo10G SFP+
10 Gigabit Ethernet Thunderbolt Adapter with Short-range SFP+ Transceiver
Blazing-fast Portable 10GBASE-SR Access
Most post-production shared storage workgroups and other bandwidth-intensive workflows have been rapidly transitioning to 10Gb Ethernet as the new data transfer standard. For many, the 10Gb Ethernet network infrastructure of choice is optical (SFP+) 10Gb Ethernet. For these workgroups, there is now an affordable 10GbE interface for your Mac, Windows, or Linux computer with Thunderbolt™ ports — Solo10G™ SFP+ Thunderbolt Adapter, a powerfully simple solution for adding blazing-fast fiber optic 10GbE network connectivity.
Connect to 10GbE Infrastructure
Solo10G SFP+ adapter includes a 10GBASE-SR (short-range) SFP+ transceiver (the most commonly-used optical transceiver), enabling you to connect your computer to 10GbE infrastructure via LC optical cable (optical cables sold separately) at distances up to 300 meters.

Advanced Features, Intelligent Operation
Solo10G SFP+ adapter attains its high throughput performance and low host-CPU utilization through functions such as flow control, 64-bit address support for systems using more than 4GB of physical memory; and stateless offloads such as TCP, UDP, and IPv4 checksum offloading. These processes enable your computer to perform better while large files transfers or high I/O operations take place. This Sonnet adapter also supports the Energy-Efficient Ethernet standard (IEEE 802.3az), which reduces the adapter’s power demands on your computer.
Additional SFP+ Transceiver Choices
With Solo10G SFP+ adapter, Sonnet includes an interchangeable short-range multi-mode fiber optical SFP+ module (up to 300 meters), part number G10E-SFP-SR. Sonnet also offers the following SFP+ transceiver modules, sold separately: a long-range single-mode fiber optical module (up to 10 kilometers), part number G10E-SFP-LR; and a 10GBASE-T copper module (up to 30 meters using Cat 6A cables), part number G10E-SFP-T. Alternatively, you can use cost-effective direct-attach Twinax copper cables (up to 10 meters long).
Pocketable. Bus-Powered. Silent.
Thunderbolt Technology
Fastest External Interface Available
Sonnet Thunderbolt products feature a high-speed Thunderbolt interface that delivers PCIe bandwidth needed to support data transfers at full speed.
Replaceable Captive Cable
Through the use of a captive cable, Solo10G SFP+ adapter’s Thunderbolt connector remains firmly connected to it at all times. Should the cable ever break, it can easily be replaced with an approved replacement cable available from Sonnet or a Sonnet-authorized reseller.
Safe and Secure
As a networked conduit into your computer, Solo10G SFP+ adapter was designed with essential security features. Incorporating encryption in hardware, this Sonnet adapter is protected against malicious modification of its firmware. Any unauthorized attempt at firmware modification to facilitate surreptitious computer access would render the adapter inoperable. This secure design prevents Solo10G SFP+ adapter firmware from being reprogrammed except by a manufacturer’s update using a secure encryption key.
