Multi-display remote graphics units
With Matrox Extio™ multi-display remote graphics units (RGUs), the user interface of the computer – the keyboard, mouse, audio peripherals and graphics hardware – can be separated from the rest of the computer by up to 820 feet (250 meters) of fiber-optic cable. Ideal for environments where data security, heat, noise and space are prevalent issues, this innovative technology provides a new physical layout for enterprise, industrial and government computing. With support for up to 4 digital or analog monitors, two dual-link displays, passive (fanless) cooling and support for PCI, PCI-X, and PCI Express slots on the host system, the Matrox Extio series is a clear choice for industries requiring a reliable and stable graphics and I/O extension technology.

Feature	Benefits
User interface devices separated from the computer by up to 820 feet (250m)	• Improved IT systems maintenance and life cycle support • Climate and noise control for user/operator stations • Climate and environment control for systems • Increased security by physical separation of workstations from users
Support for up to 4 digital/analog monitors or two dual-link displays	• Additional screen real estate can help increase productivity by as much as 20-50% • Seeing more critical information at once can improve the ability to react and reduce errors
Passive cooling solution	• No moving parts leads to a reduction in noise, heat and a longer MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure), maximizing uptime of mission-critical applications
Long product life cycle	• Decrease of the TCO (total cost of ownership) and reduction of any downtime of critical applications
Thin size of remote graphics unit	• Better workspace management and ergonomics
Easy-to-use Matrox PowerDesk display driver interface	• Allows for optimal management of message pop-ups and windows positioning

Fiber-optic interface cards
The interface card installed in the computer converts outgoing bus data to an optical signal and converts incoming bus data back to an electrical signal. The card transmits and receives this optical data to and from the remote graphics unit via fiber-optic cable. Extio has integrated graphics, audio, and USB hardware that process the bus data as if it were part of an add-in card directly installed in a computer expansion slot.

Interface Card	Part Number	Bus Type	Dimensions
PCI interface card	XTOA-FP66LPAF	32-bit PCI (works in PCI and PCI-X slotes)	4.7" x 2.5" (11.9 cm x 6.3 cm)
