PCoIP is a flexible technology that lets you deploy both PCoIP hardware endpoints and PCoIP software endpoints in your end-to-end network.
PCoIP hardware endpoints include PCoIP Remote Workstation Cards and zero clients. These devices contain embedded PCoIP processors for image compression/decompression and coding/decoding, respectively. The table below lists the processor name and family for zero clients and remote workstation cards, along with the set of display resolutions the device supports.
Note: The processor name refers to the chipset used in the PCoIP device. For example, TERA2140 is the processor used in the second-generation TERA2140 zero client, and TERA2240 is the processor used in the second-generation TERA2240 PCIe remote workstation card (for tower PC or rack mount workstations) and TERA2240 PCI Mezzanine remote workstation card (for blade workstations). For details on how to display the processor name for your device, see Displaying Processor Information.

*Tera2 zero clients support 2560x1600 resolution on attached displays using either DVI (with Y-cable) or DisplayPort interfaces. For instructions on how to connect cables to Tera2 zero clients with DVI and/or DisplayPort ports to support this resolution, see DVI and DisplayPort Interfaces. |
You can mix and match any remote workstation card with any zero client. However, when you connect a zero client to a remote workstation card, the maximum supported resolutions for any displays attached to the client will equal the most common denominator between the two devices. For example, if you connect a TERA2140 zero client to a TERA2240 remote workstation card, you can attach up to four 1920x1200 displays or two 2560x1600 displays. However, if you connect a TERA2321 zero client to the same remote workstation card, the options become up to two 1920x1200 displays or one 2560x1600 display.
A number of software endpoints also support PCoIP, such as the following:
