It is one of the current-generation Zio 4000 output cards and the one to specify where the chassis has to reach 8K or high-dynamic-range display resolutions rather than conventional 4Kp60. The mini-DP++ connector keeps four dense outputs on a single card face, which suits high-count control room video wall builds. Creation Networks configures the card with the chassis, input cards and licensing as one build.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOutput cards decide the ceiling of a video wall, and the AD series raised that ceiling for the Zio 4000 platform. The AD-4D-5 is published as supporting up to 2x 8Kp60 or 4x 5K60 HDR 12b across its four mini-DP++ 2.0 outputs, so one card either feeds a pair of 8K displays or four high-resolution HDR panels. With a maximum of four cards per chassis, a fully populated processor reaches sixteen outputs at this class of resolution — enough for a large operations center wall driven from a single chassis.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose between the current AD cards on connector and density.
