8.2 Configuring a Host Card
PCoIP host cards are small add-in cards that can be integrated into tower PCs, rack mount
PCs, PC blades, and server blades. The card's TERA-series processor performs advanced
display compression algorithms to encode a user's full desktop environment. This
information is then communicated in real time over an IP network to the user's PCoIP zero
client.
8.2.1 Installing the Host Card
Note: The host card's MAC address is located on a sticker on the card. It is important to
write down this address before installing the card in the host PC or workstation.
For detailed instructions on how to physically install the card, please see "Tera2 PCoIP®
Host Card Quick Start Guide" (TER1207006). This guide has detailed instructions for each
step of the installation process.
Important Note!
When connecting the GPU to the host card with the provided cables, always connect the
lowest numbered connector on the GPU to the lowest numbered connector on the host card,
and continue upward.
Some GPUs have both DVI and DisplayPort connectors. To support 2560x1600 resolution
when connecting these GPUs, connect the lowest numbered DisplayPort connector on the
