Zero client and PCoIP overview
A Cloud Desktop, or zero client, is a remote computing device that
connects a user’s monitors, keyboard, mouse, speakers, and other
peripherals to remote PC blades (computers) and to virtual desktops
(VMs). As shown below, computing resources are typically located in
remote data centers. Zero clients enable users to work on a 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 remote device, a
host card manages the PCoIP session.

Client and Host Card firmware
Use the same Teradici® firmware version on PCoIP zero clients and
host cards.
CD9500-series and CD7500-series zero clients include Tera 2
processors, requiring Teradici firmware 4.0.3 and higher.
Dual-monitor CD9500-series and CD7500-series zero clients do not
support connection to ClearCube Tera 1 quad devices.
See PCoIP System User’s Guide and PCoIP Firmware Support and
