Since traders must react quickly to changes at the local, national and international level, the ability to monitor news and information from the desktop has become extremely important. Having a TV tuner on a multi-headed graphics solution means that financial traders can stay in touch with market changes without ever leaving their desks. With the four monitor version, users are able to view a maximum desktop size of 7680 x 1200. In order to support multiple monitors the Productiva G100 Multi-Monitor video card has a bracket, which consists of two specialized connectors that attach to two custom cables. Each of these cables has two VGA HD15 female connectors for easy connection to any standard monitor.
Users can also add other features like hardware DVD acceleration or video editing.
These options not only lower the total cost of ownership, but they also extend the life of a user's PC by keeping them at the cutting edge of new technology. The Productiva G100 Multi-Monitor Series offers these options through either custom configuration order or through an upgrade path. Of course, with two or four monitors users will also need special Windows utilities to prevent menus and dialog boxes from appearing in the middle of two monitors, and to save settings for each monitor display. Included with the Productiva G100 Multi-Monitor video card are a number of useful desktop management utilities. The use of two and four monitors is also prevalent in public safety control stations, hospitals, factory automation, hospitality and retail promotions, video editing and video wall displays, industrial displays and CAD displays.
