DVI and DisplayPort Interfaces

Tera2 PCoIP Zero Clients support both DVI and DisplayPort digital display interfaces. The following port options are available for these clients:

  • TERA2321 DVI-I dual-display Tera2 PCoIP Zero Client: contains two DVI ports.
  • TERA2321 DP+DVI-I dual-display Tera2 PCoIP Zero Client: contains one DVI port and one DisplayPort port.
  • TERA2140 DVI-D quad-display Tera2 PCoIP Zero Client: contains four DVI ports.
  • TERA2140 DP quad-display Tera2 PCoIP Zero Client: contains four DisplayPort ports.

Support for 4K UHD Display Resolution

4K UHD (3840x2160) resolution is supported on DisplayPort interfaces only. The Zero Client will drive the monitor at 30 Hz.

When using 4K displays, the following frame rate caveats apply:

  • TERA2140 (quad port models): When playing full screen video on one 4K display the framerate can sustain 30 FPS only when other connected displays are static.

  • TERA2321 (dual port models): When playing full screen video on a 4K display on a TERA2321, the framerate can sustain 15 FPS. A video that takes up half of the screen can run at 30 FPS.

Support for 2560x1600 Display Resolution

All of the previous Tera2 PCoIP Zero Clients also support 2560x1600 resolution for attached monitors with either DVI or DisplayPort interfaces. However, a custom dual-link DVI cable adapter is required to support this resolution for DVI interfaces.

The following figure illustrates how to connect video cables to each type of Tera2 PCoIP Zero Client to achieve 2560x1600 resolution on a connected display.

DVI and DisplayPort Connectors for 2560x1600 Resolution

  • TERA2321 DVI-I dual-display Tera2 PCoIP Zero Client: This PCoIP Zero Client supports one 2560x1600 monitor. Connect the two DVI-I cable connectors on a custom dual-link DVI-I cable adapter to the two DVI-I ports on the Tera2 PCoIP Zero Client, as shown in the previous illustration (upper left).

  • TERA2321 DP+DVI-I dual-display Tera2 PCoIP Zero Client: This Tera2 PCoIP Zero Client supports one 2560x1600 or 3840x2160 monitor on the DisplayPort interface only. Connect the connector on a DisplayPort cable to the DisplayPort port on the Tera2 PCoIP Zero Client, as shown in the previous illustration (upper right).

  • TERA2140 DVI-D quad-display Tera2 PCoIP Zero Client: This client supports up to two 2560x1600 resolution monitors. For each monitor, connect the two DVI-D cable connectors on a custom dual-link DVI-D cable adapter to the two DVI-D ports that are shown in the previous illustration (lower left). These connectors must be connected to ports on the client exactly as shown.

  • TERA2140 DP quad-display Tera2 PCoIP Zero Client: This Tera2 PCoIP Zero Client supports up to two 2560x1600 or 3840x2160 monitors. For each one, connect the connector on a DisplayPort cable to a DisplayPort port on the Tera2 PCoIP Zero Client, as shown in the previous illustration (lower right).
