NVIDIA Quadro K6000 Sync Hardware Components
The NVIDIA Quadro K6000 Sync consists of the following hardware components:
1) NVIDIA Quadro K6000 graphics board
2) NVIDIA Quadro Sync board
3) 4 ribbon connector cables
4) 6 cable retention clips
NVIDIA Quadro K6000 Sync Overview
The NVIDA Quadro K6000 Sync delivers Frame Lock/Genlock support and sophisticated
programmable graphics for visualization, simulation, and other types of collaborative
applications. It delivers advanced multi-display visualization solutions by teaming the
unprecedented features and benefits of the Quadro K6000 with Quadro Sync Frame Lock,
Genlock, and synchronized Frame Buffer Swap functionality. Multi-system visualization clusters
and multi-device film and video environments are also fully supported.
The Quadro K6000 requires an open x16 PCIe interface slot with an adjacent open slot (doublewidth board). The K6000 requires auxiliary power via two PCIe 6-pin auxiliary power connectors.
The NVIDIA Quadro Sync board is designed to fit into any available expansion slot within 6
inches of the NVIDIA Quadro K6000. The Quadro Sync requires power via a 6-pin PCIe power
connector or SATA power connector. Each Quadro Sync card can support up to four NVIDIA
Quadro K6000 boards.
Frame Lock allows the display channels from multiple graphics boards or 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 K6000 and NVIDIA Quadro Sync will synchronize up to four displays
simultaneously (2 DVI-DL and 2 DisplayPort 1.2), provided they are all in same display mode,
which means the same resolution and refresh rate on all four displays.
NVIDIA Quadro K6000 Overview
The NVIDIA Quadro K6000 graphics board is a PCI Express full-height form factor (4.376 inches
by 10.5 inches) graphics add-in card based on the NVIDIA Quadro K6000 graphics processing
unit (GPU). It is targeted as a high-performance desktop graphics solution for PCI Express
systems. The NVIDIA Quadro K6000 graphics board offers 28880 CUDA parallel processing cores,
12GB of GDDR5 GPU memory, and supports display types ranging from analog CRTs to the latest
digital flat panels.
