 ATTO Technology (www.attotech.com) has announced Mac OS X driver support for its FastFrame 40GbE Network Interface Cards. General availability for ATTO’s 40GbE OS X driver is expected in the third quarter of the year.

ATTO will highlight the new OS X driver in an extended media workflow demonstration in its booth (SL8511) at the NAB trade show in Las Vegas, April 18-21. The live demo, which will feature ATTO’s FastFrame NQ42 40GbE NIC in a Thunderbolt expansion chassis connected to a Mac mini workstation, will display how ATTO’s 40GbE solutions are Thunderbolt-ready in Mac environments. Unlike competing solutions, this ensures 40GbE support for currently shipping Mac platforms, including Mac Pro workstations, Mac Minis and Mac Pro laptops says Tim Klein, CEO of ATTO Technology.

Available in single and dual-port versions with optional QSFP+s, FastFrame 40 NICs combine near-line speed throughput with best-in-class latency to enable high-performance applications such as uncompressed 4K and 8K video editing. Now with the addition of OS X support, they join ATTO’s extensive portfolio of network and storage connectivity products designed to address all aspects of media production and IT infrastructure.
