Dual Channel Display Option
Silicon Graphics® Tezro® with the Dual Channel Display option is a cost-effective video output option that enables either the tower or the rackmount configuration of Tezro to drive two display channels; this doubles the display area for enhanced viewing and information management on each screen. The Dual Channel Display option creates an ideal solution for markets such as medicine, visual simulation, oil and gas, and digital content creation where additional screen space is especially important.

Features:

• The Dual Channel Display option provides two analog outputs capable of driving CRTs with pixel frequencies of 220 MHz or two Silicon Graphics® flat panel displays
• High-resolution support with up to 1920x1200 at 72 Hz on each screen
• Unified window manager and desktop for efficient information management on each screen
• Can be configured to drive three-way display splitter for sharing and collaboration
• 80MB texture memory available
• Direct VPro™ connect does not require an XIOۙ slot nor any additional software or drivers
• The Dual Channel Display option can be combined with the Dual Head option (described below) to drive up to three or four displays with the same system

Dual Head Option
The Dual Head option allows you to drive two synchronized, high-performance texture-intensive graphics heads from the same high-performance Silicon Graphics Tezro system. Designed for applications that require additional screen space on two separate screens, the Dual Head option is available with the rackmount configuration. Dual-head configurations offer independent windows on each head and give programmers the flexibility they need for advanced data modeling and analysis applications. One head might continuously display complex visual information such as seismic data, while the other head is reserved for the user interactions required to analyze and update visual data.

Features:

• High-resolution support with up to 1920x1200 at 60 Hz or 72 Hz on each screen; each display is stereo-capable
• Swap-ready and genlock

There are three bundled Dual Head configurations available with Silicon Graphics Tezro, one with a single processor, one with dual-processors, and one with four processors.

Dual Head can be combined with the Dual Channel Display option (described above) to drive up to four monodisplays with the same system.
