- We are currently working on the layout for our working quarters and one
- solution implies that we place the graphic consoles far from the computers
- (2 MP machines: 4D/440 and R4000-MP). The distance would be about 30 feet.
- From SGI there seems to be an extension kit for 75 feet (part# X4-VKC1).
-
- Question is will there be any problems related with the use of such a lenght
- of cable (like line noise, screen flicker, ...). Also is there smaller
- extensions from SGI or third party source.
-
- Thanks for your time.
