NVIDIA Quadro K4200 Sync Overview
The NVIDA Quadro K4200 with NVIDIA Quadro Sync delivers Frame Lock/Genlock and advanced
programmable graphics for industrial, visualization and collaborative applications, by providing
features for advanced multi-system visualization and multi-device film and video environments.
This sophisticated professional visualization solution is GPU-driven by the NVIDIA Quadro K4200,
while features such Frame Lock, Genlock, and synchronized Frame Buffer Swap and refresh rate
are supported by a companion NVIDIA Quadro Sync board.
The Quadro K4200 requires an open x16 PCIe interface slot. The NVIDIA Quadro Sync board is
designed to fit into any available expansion slot within 6 to 24 inches of the NVIDIA Quadro
K4200. The Quadro Sync requires power via a 6-pin power connector or SATA power connector.
The Quadro Sync card can host up to four (4) NVIDIA Quadro K4200 boards.
Frame Lock allows the display channels from multiple workstations to be synchronized, creating
one large “virtual display” that can be driven by a multi-system cluster for performance
scalability.
Genlock allows the graphics output to be synchronized to an external source, typically for film
and broadcast video applications.
The NVIDIA Quadro K4200 and NVIDIA Quadro Sync will synchronize up to four displays
simultaneously (1 DVI-DL and 2 Display Port, 4 displays connected via DP1.2 MTS), provided they
are all in same display mode, which means the same resolution and refresh rate on all four
displays.
NVIDIA Quadro K4200 Overview
The NVIDIA Quadro K4200 graphics board is a PCI Express full-height form factor (4.376 inches
by 9.5 inches) graphics add-in card based on the NVIDIA Quadro K4200 graphics processing unit
(GPU). It is targeted as a high-performance desktop graphics solution for PCI Express systems.
