February 3, 2016 — Matrox Graphics announced Matrox C900, a single-slot, nine-output graphics card that supports nine 1920x1080 displays at 60Hz.
A special-purpose graphics card designed to power 3x3 and 9x1 video walls, C900’s single-slot form factor and low power consumption at 75W offer digital signage and video wall vendors simpler integration and a lower cost of ownership. Its support for stretched desktop across all nine synchronized outputs lets users run any application full screen across a 3x3 video wall which makes the card ideal for control room video wall solutions in security, process control and transportation.
Matrox PowerDesk desktop management software for Windows is included with C900 to give users a comprehensive set of tools, including bezel management and EDID management, to easily configure and manage their multi-display setups. Advanced APIs are available to developers and OEMs to quickly build custom interfaces and applications.
Matrox C900 is a PCI Express 3.0 x16 graphics card with 4GB of memory that supports nine displays at a maximum resolution of 1920x1080 per display or a total desktop resolution of 5760x3240 in a 3x3 display configuration. More displays can be supported by inserting two C900 cards or a C900 plus a Matrox C680 six-output board into a system to power 18- or 15-screen video walls. The board-to-board framelock feature ensures synchronization of all displays.
C900 features nine mini-HDMI connectors, supports digital audio through HDMI and is DirectX 12 and OpenGL 4.4 compliant. It is compatible with Matrox Mura IPX Series 4K capture and IP encoder & decoder cards.
