xMac Pro Server with Modules

Expand & Secure Your Mac Pro (Late 2013)

Building on the concept of our award-winning xMac mini Server for Mac® mini, Sonnet's xMac Pro Server safely encloses the computer into a tightly integrated 16" deep rackmount enclosure, incorporates PCIe card expansion with three PCIe 2.0 slots and 20Gbps Thunderbolt™ 2 technology, and provides the capability to add peripherals if you have one of Sonnet's Mobile Rack Device Mounting Kits.

If you’re a pro user in the video or audio industries with a Mac Pro (Late 2013) you know Its compact size makes the computer more transportable and rackable, but prevents onboard installation of PCIe expansion cards. In addition, the computer still requires an enclosure to make it road- or rack-ready and provide convenient cable management.

Sonnet’s xMac™ Pro Server enclosure addresses these issues and increases a Mac Pro’s potential in a big way. With amazing expansion capabilities, an easy to maintain modular design, and support for a wide range of popular mobile racks, carts and portable rack cases, xMac Pro Server is the perfect solution for expanding a Mac Pro (Late 2013).

Rear Panel Mount Cables
Panel-mount cables (HDMI, two Gigabit Ethernet, three USB 3.0, one 3.5 mm audio [out or in], and power) connect the ports on the back of each Mac Pro to ports on the back each Computer Mounting Module for convenient external connection.

New Faceplate & Thumbscrew Design
Because of the active electronics contained in each end of a Thunderbolt cable, panel-mount connectors for Thunderbolt cables do not exist; Thunderbolt cables must be connected directly to the computer. Sonnet has updated the xMac Pro Server to make that task, and accessing PCIe cards, easier. Screws on the back of the enclosure have been replaced with captive thumbscrews, and the faceplate has been split in two (with each faceplate remaining attached to its module), enabling you to secure, release, and slide out each module without the need of tools.
