Data transfer rate capability up to 5GB/s revolutionizes workflow for imaging professionals
San Jose, CA – March 19, 2020, 8:00 am —ProGrade Digital™, founded with a mission to provide the highest quality professional grade digital memory cards and workflow solutions, announces two new card readers to its industry-leading product line. The PG04 is a Thunderbolt 3 reader for CFexpress Type B and XQD cards that is capable of transferring data at speeds up to 40Gb/s (5GB/s). This enables you to take full advantage of the read speeds of your CFexpress cards to create a fast and efficient workflow. The PG05.5 is a replacement for the popular PG05 reader that has a USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface enabling the simultaneous transfer of data from both card slots at up to 10Gb/s (1.25GB/s). The PG05.5 supports both CFexpress Type B and SDXC, UHS-II cards.
“These additions to our reader product line give our customers more choices for downloading content from the quickly emerging CFexpress Type B standard.” said Wes Brewer, founder and CEO of ProGrade Digital. “We are excited to introduce another pair of industry-leading card readers that provide greatly improved levels of performance to the workflow of creative professionals. Being able to download a 256GB card filled with data in less than 3 minutes represents a 3x to 5x improvement in speed compared current solutions in the market.”
The PG04 includes a certified Thunderbolt 3 cable while the PG05.5 includes both a USB 3.2 Gen2 type C to C and type C to A cables. Just like the rest of the ProGrade Digital reader line, these new readers have a patent-pending magnetic base and come with an adhesive metal plate to solidly attach the reader to any work surface – such as a laptop cover for greater convenience and functionality. “This feature is extremely popular with professionals who often find themselves editing in cramped spaces so we also included it in the larger PG04 reader.“ said Brewer.
