The TB2USB3ES Thunderbolt™ to eSATA + USB 3.0 Adapter lets you expand your MacBook or laptop connectivity by combining Thunderbolt to eSATA and Thunderbolt to USB 3.0 functionality into a single, compact adapter. You gain two vital interfaces that are unavailable or limited on most Thunderbolt-equipped systems, delivering fast, reliable performance, more connection possibilities, and rugged portability.
Fast, Reliable Performance
Experience fast, effective and reliable performance from your essential peripherals! Now, you can leverage the 10 Gbps bandwidth of your Thunderbolt port to create a scalable, high-speed solution that offers eSATA and USB 3.0 connectivity.
To maximize efficiency, two dedicated lanes connect the Thunderbolt adapter directly to your system PCIe bus. Each lane delivers 5 Gbps bandwidth so you effectively avoid performance bottlenecks when both ports are in use. This versatile adapter gives you fast, simple and reliable external connectivity, offered by revolutionary Thunderbolt technology.
Connection Possibilities
Take full advantage of your current peripherals! Saving you the added expense of purchasing new devices, this single adapter lets you simultaneously connect your existing peripherals through your Thunderbolt port - perfect for eSATA external hard drives (with SATA III support), as well as USB 3.0 hubs (with UASP support), or for syncing with your tablet or smartphone.
You can even integrate the adapter into the end of a Thunderbolt daisy-chain configuration! Connect the adapter to your Thunderbolt Docking Station (SKU: TBDOCKHDPBC - sold separately), for further MacBook expandability!
Rugged Portability
Get work done on the go, and look great doing it! A rugged and travel-friendly design lets you tuck the adapter neatly into your laptop bag, plus the casing combines portability with durability to offer quality protection that lets you take the adapter anywhere.
This sleek and stylish Thunderbolt adapter aesthetically matches your MacBook Pro® or MacBook Air®, with a silver sandblast finish and black rubberized grips. Plus, the compact adapter requires no external power, and integrates a built-in Thunderbolt cable as well as hassle-free plug-and-play installation.
Backed by a StarTech.com 2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support.
