Add Thunderbolt connectivity to your Universal Audio Apollo DUO or QUAD interface with this expansion card.

The Universal Audio Thunderbolt Option Card for the Apollo audio interface provides greater UAD plug-in instances, improved performance at higher sample rates, and reduced UAD plug-in latency versus Apollos standard FireWire connection. Compatible with Intel's Thunderbolt technology on the current generation of iMacs, MacBook Pros, MacBook Airs, and Mac minis, the Thunderbolt Option Card offers unrivaled bandwidth and next-generation connectivity for the Apollo interface.

The user-installable Thunderbolt Option Card includes two Thunderbolt ports, and easily slides into the expansion bay of the Apollo.
