PCoIP Remote Workstation Card Requirements¶
The PCoIP Remote Workstation Card has few requirements other than being used in a host PC that supports PCIe x1 devices.
Host Requirements¶
| Category | Requirement | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Operating System | Windows or Linux | If using features requiring the Remote Workstation Card Software, the PC must be Windows or Linux based |
| Hardware Interface | Available PCIe x1 | |
| GPU | Video port | At minimum, the same number of ports to match the number of monitors in your deployment (up to 4) Ports must support dual data rates to obtain maximum Remote Workstation Card resolution |
| Resolution | GPU must support the resolution used in your deployment (up to 3840x2160 @ 30 Hz) | |
| Video Port Cables | miniDP to DP or miniDP to DVI | High resolution configurations to a GPU with DVI ports may require active cables |
| Remote Workstation Card Firmware | Matching client release | See release notes for compatible clients |
Connecting Monitors to your Workstation
PCoIP sessions to Remote Workstation Cards when monitors are connected on the local workstation are not supported.
4K Requirements¶
| Category | Requirement | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Firmware | 4K firmware 20.01 or newer | Firmware 20.01 - 23.06 Firmware 23.08 or newer |
| Model | Mini DisplayPort model of a quad (TERA2240) or dual (TERA2220) Remote Workstation Card | |
| GPU | The GPU on the workstation must support 4K UHD |
Bandwidth, Build to Lossless, and timing behavior
-
For the best user experience, a 1 Gb connection between the client and host is recommended
-
With 4K firmware, the Remote Workstation Card Build to Lossless feature is disabled when using 4K resolutions
-
4K @ 60 Hz timings are not supported. The client will search for a 4K @ 30 Hz timing instead.
