Zero Client Overview
ClearCube
®
CD7424SFPST Zero Clients connect to supported
ClearCube PC blades and virtual machines containing V5
x
20
Dual Host cards to provide the following:
• Small form-factor pluggable (SFP) socket, accepting various
Gigabit Ethernet modules
• Support for multi-mode, single-mode, and WDM single-mode
fiber media and for copper media
• Integrated smart card reader
• Support for up to two independently-configurable monitors
• PC–over–IP™ (PCoIP™) processors, delivering PC video and
audio over an IP network
• Three USB ports
• HD audio in (front) and HD 4.0 audio out
ClearCube PC blades are typically located in remote data centers.
Each blade user has a CD7424SFPST Zero Client on their desk, which
they use to connect to a remote blade or VM over an IP network
(consisting of fiber and Ethernet segments). Users connect monitors,
pointing devices, and other peripherals to their client, enabling them
to work on the blade or VM as if it is a local PC. The connection
between the zero client and the remote device is over PCoIP protocol.
Inside the blade, a V5x20 Dual Host card manages the PCoIP session.

Ensuring Client & Host Firmware Compatibility
ClearCube PCoIP zero clients and host cards must use identical
firmware versions. If you are upgrading portions of existing
ClearCube deployments, ensure that all PCoIP devices use the same
firmware version. Additionally, devices must use firmware version
3.0 or higher in a VMware
®
View environment. See
PCoIP User’s
Guide
and
PCoIP Firmware Support and Compatibility Guide
on
the ClearCube Support site for instructions about identifying and
updating PCoIP device firmware.
