Accidental cable disconnect can lead to data loss. Sonnet’s ThunderLok 3 secures the Thunderbolt cable to the Echo chassis, and is easy to install and use—just slide it over one end of the cable, and then plug in the connector and secure it to the chassis by turning a thumbscrew. Because of its unique design, ThunderLok does not attach to the connector, but remains on the cable so it won’t get lost when not in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's In The Box\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSonnet Echo Express SEL 1-Slot Thunderbolt 3 to Low-Profile PCIe Card Expansion\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sonnet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67739709767958,"sku":"ECHO-EXP-SEL-T5","price":10479.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/3836\/9814\/files\/1790086560_2000436-625x625.jpg?v=1792137135","url":"https:\/\/www.macnificent.co.za\/products\/sonnet-echo-express-sel-thunderbolt-5-one-slot-low-profile-pcie-card-expansion-system-black","provider":"Macnificent","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
