NOTE This diagram depicts the HP Z800 workstation with a 2-port GigE adapter in slot 1 (top to bottom), and
a Mellanox

®

QDR InfiniBand / 10-GigE adapter in slot 7. Optionally, your workstation can be set up with a second

ATTO Fibre Channel adapter in slot 1. A number of previous HP Z800 workstations shipped with a 4-port GigE
adapter, a Qlogic

DDR InfiniBand adapter, or a separate Myricom 10-GigE adapter. Note also that the Mellanox

card is currently supported only with Visual Effects and Finishing products.

Connecting the Graphics Monitor

The graphics monitor connects to the Nvidia

®

Quadro

®

FX graphics card. This is also an opportunity to

connect the graphics adapter to its add-on card, the Nvidia Quadro SDI Output adapter.

To connect the monitor:

1 Use the short DVI cable to connect port 1 of the Nvidia Quadro FX graphics adapter card to the DVI

port of the Nvidia Quadro SDI Output adapter (the add-on card).

2 Use the longer DVI cable (F0-DVI-25-MN) to connect port 2 of the Nvidia Quadro FX graphics adapter

card to the DVI-D IN port of the monitor.
