Hi all. I am the alleged "talent" who is also the purchaser at this point. I relocated, and am trying to get set up for the first time. I am trying to transition away from TriCaster, and go all NDI. On my primary PC I have a 10Gb PCI-E NIC Network Card, Single SFP+ Port, PCI Express Ethernet LAN Adapter Support Windows Server/Linux/VMware, X520-10G-1S-X8, https://www.amazon.com/g...AE2OZG2NN3099&psc=1. If there is a better card than this, I hope someone will please say. I hope to use this setup with 2 PTZOptics NDI PTZ-12s (soon to be 3), a PTZOptics NDI Z-Cam, and a Microtik cloud router. These are all obviously 10G Ethernet NIC based. My backup and travel rig is an Acer Predator Helios 500 laptop (with Thunderbolt input). Is it possible to get an external 10G NIC card for use with this laptop, perhaps with an external 10G card? And if so, what is the best one? Would something like this work? https://www.amazon.com/A...RID=AR1GDFJ4TR0R3GW53HTDI apologize if my questions are inexperienced. I did a search, but did not find the answer. I am trying to surround myself with people more knowledgeable than myself (and train my core team), but it takes time. Thanks in advance.

We use a 10GB Ethernet RJ45 card of the same brand between our primary vMix and replay vMix. No issue at all. The ThunderBolt/USB-C 10GB adapter should work great also.
