Multi-Video Solution
The ClearCube multi-video solution provides a revolutionary way to multi-task and
process information.
While the C/Port provides all the peripheral and USB connections, the multiplexed
video signal can be passed through to the Multi-Video Expander (MVX) via a
noise-limiting VGA connector cable.
The MVX distributes the individual video frames to the appropriate output connectors.
The two video outputs on the MVX are special, high-density connectors that can each
drive two monitors.
The MVX can be used with either the standard C/Port or the Fiber C/Port for
connection over copper or fiber optic cable (the MVX does NOT function with I/Ports).
The MVX requires that the PC Blade have a multi-monitor graphics card installed. The
centralized ClearCube architecture combined with multi-video capabilities results in
the ideal solution for space-constrained trading floors and other applications requiring
multiple displays.
Shown in Figure 8, the MVX is physically the same size as the standard C/Port and
can be stacked on top of a C/Port.
The ClearCube multi-video solution offers these features:
• Support for as many as four displays over a single C/Port cable or 62.5 micron,
multi-mode fiber.
• NVIDIA Quadro4™ NVS-based graphics adapter with 64 MB DDR video memory
for PC Blade.
• ClearView™ video driver/GUI based on NVIDIA’s award-winning nView video
driver.
• Analog and digital output (DVI) that provides resolution as high as 1280 x 1024
and 75 Hz refresh on each monitor.
• Built-in Clone Mode replicates a single video image across all connected
monitors.
