Node Pro (Thunderbolt3 MacOS and Windows Certified)

The Node Pro provides an additional PCIe slot for Thunderbolt 3 computers (e.g. laptop computers) where installing an internal expansion card isn’t an option and for systems where there isn’t enough space for more PCIe cards. The Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) connection not only makes adding an external PCIe card easy but it also permits you to take the device with you to use on location and move it from one system to another. Installing and replacing the PCIe card is a simple matter of removing a couple of thumb screws and does not require any tools. Supports PCIe Gen3 x4 cards The PCIe (x16) slot accepts full-length, full-height, double-width cards and provides a maximum of 75W. The four PCIe Gen3 lanes and the Thunderbolt 3 interface are capable of transfer rates up to 40Gbps, providing enough bandwidth for both the internal PCIe card in addition to any additional Thunderbolt devices in the daisy chain. Power Delivery (60W) The reversible USB Type-C (USB-C) connector enhances ease of use for connecting devices with a focus on minimizing user confusion for plug and cable orientation. The Node Pro also supports power delivery (PD) over USB-C, providing up to 3A at 5V, 9V, 15V, 20V with a maximum of 60W of power to compatible laptops like the MacBook Pro (late 2016) that make stronger charging through the USB-C cable. This lets you recharge your battery even supposing the laptop isn’t plugged into any other power source. PSU fan The fan for the power supply turns off and on automatically when needed. Case fan The large fan at the bottom of the case pulls out the hot air from inside the enclosure, keeping the the PCIe card cool all the way through long hours of operation. Mesh panel The mesh panel provides fresh air to keep the PCIe card cool and depending on the on-board fan of the PCIe card, can be utilized for air intake or exhaust.
