Product Description

The Beckhoff C9900-A183 is an industrial PC component designed to enhance the visual capabilities of industrial systems. As an ADD2 card, it functions as a graphics expansion card, providing additional display outputs and improving the graphical processing power of the host industrial PC. The "ADD2" specification refers to a specific type of PCI extension card designed for industrial applications, ensuring compatibility and reliability within Beckhoff's industrial PC ecosystem. One of the key features of the C9900-A183 is its support for extended desktop configurations. This allows users to expand their workspace across multiple displays, increasing productivity and enhancing visualization capabilities.

The card's dual-channel display resolution further enhances this by enabling each connected display to show half of the entire screen, creating a larger, more immersive visual workspace. This is particularly useful in applications where detailed information or complex visualizations, such as process monitoring, machine control, and data analysis, need to be displayed. The C9900-A183 utilizes DVI connections for internal and external displays. DVI (Digital Visual Interface) is a standard digital video interface known for its high image quality and robust signal transmission. DVI ensures clear and sharp visuals even over longer cable runs, often necessary in industrial environments.

The card's PCI Express x16 form factor ensures high-speed data transfer between the card and the host PC, enabling smooth graphics performance and responsiveness. From a physical perspective, the C9900-A183 is designed to integrate into industrial PC setups seamlessly. Its compact dimensions of 12.5 cm x 16 cm x 2 cm and relatively light weight of approximately 1 kg allows for easy installation within various industrial PC enclosures. The card's robust construction and adherence to industrial standards ensure reliable operation even in harsh industrial environments, where factors like temperature fluctuations, vibrations, and electromagnetic interference can pose challenges to sensitive electronic components.
