Created from <SR 3-4575505929>

Applies to:

Sun Ray Hardware - Version: Sun Ray 3Plus and later   [Release: 1.0 and later ]
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

Sun Ray 3 Plus drives a monitor with native resolution of 2560x1440@60Hz but at 1280x1440@60Hz.

Cause

A single  link DVI cable was used.


Solution

Use a dual link DVI cable to connect a 2560x1440 monitor.

Details:


Sun Ray 3 Plus supports resolutions up to 2560x1600@60Hz on each DVI port; see :

http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E25618_02/E25355/html/sr3-plus-graphics.html

It is important to use the correct DVI cable.
For displays with resolution 1920x1200@60Hz (and below) a single link DVI cable is sufficient.

But for displays with higher resolution, like 2560x1440@60Hz, 2560x1600@60Hz, a dual link cable is required.
