Echo Express SEL Inner Assembly
1 – Thunderbolt Interface Card
This is installed into its own slot and
may not be moved to the PCIe slot.
2 – PCIe Slot
This is an x8 mechanical (x8 electrical)
PCIe 2.0 slot. It is also compatible with
PCIe 1.1 and 3.0 cards. Note that the
use of a low-profile bracket on the
card installed into the slot is required.
3 – Fan
The temperature-controlled fan
provides cooling for the installed
PCIe card and the chassis’ supporting
Thunderbolt circuitry. It operates at
a whisper when the card is running
cool, and speeds up when the
temperature rises. Do not block the
vent holes on the front or back of the
chassis to prevent overheating.

Connect this to the Echo Express SEL
chassis’ power port. Note that the
power indicator on top lights when
the adapter is connected to AC power
2 – Power Cord

the power cord included with your

the one pictured here, depending on
where the product was purchased
Thunderbolt Connector Lock
This secures Thunderbolt connectors
plugged into the Echo chassis’
Thunderbolt ports to prevent accidental
cable disconnection. This lock is not
compatible with optical Thunderbolt
cables.
