Introducing Plugable's Thunderbolt 5 “build-your-own” local AI eclosure. Developers can transform standard Windows Thunderbolt laptops into private AI devices by adding their own GPU and software stack. Where most AI is currently trapped in the cloud or throttled by underpowered mobile chips, the TBT5-AI enclosure lets users plug workstation-class power directly into their PC. By hosting a user-supplied GPU at the desk, the TBT5-AI enables the use of powerful open-source models and bypasses cloud subscription fees entirely.
- Build Your Own AI Enclosure: The Plugable TBT5-AI is an 80Gbps high-performance Thunderbolt 5 eGPU enclosure featuring an 850W ATX 3.1 PSU and PCIe x16 slot with 4 lanes PCIe 4.0 to host your own GPU for offline AI models. (GPU not provided)
- Intelligence You Own: Resolve the innovation vs. privacy deadlock by running models like Llama 3 with an air gap. This secure system supports Ollama, LM Studio, Foundry Local, NVIDIA NIM, and llama.cpp, ensuring your sensitive prompts, data, and results never leave your perimeter. No cloud risks or subscription fees
- Modular Performance Scales With Your Workflow: More than an external GPU enclosure, the TBT5-AI includes features like 96W host charging, 2.5Gbps Ethernet, downstream Thunderbolt 5 port, and 10Gbps USB-A and USB-C ports. The 850W PSU (80+ Gold) provides a dedicated 600W to your GPU, leveraging 80Gbps Thunderbolt 5 speeds for double the bandwidth of Thunderbolt 4
- Works With: Thunderbolt 5, 4, and USB4 systems. USB4 must support eGPU: Designed for Windows 11, it connects via a single Thunderbolt 5 cable (included). Supports GPUs up to 346mm x 170mm x 77mm, and 3.5-slots wide, and 600W, fitting most high-end cards like NVIDIA, AMD. Check GPU dimensions before purchase. Not compatible with macOS, Linux, ChromeOS, or Thunderbolt 3
- Lifetime Support: This TAA-compliant AI enclosure has been designed with reliability at its core and was built to meet the deployment demands of IT departments and the ease of use necessary for home offices. Includes lifetime support from our North American team of connectivity experts
