Supported
PCIe Guidance
PCIe preferred as it requires less system over-head due
to direct PCIe to PCIe connection between the host
CPU and Artist DNxIO.
Thunderbolt Guidance
Thunderbolt 2 & 3 - higher system over-head, not
recommended to share Thunderbolt devices on the
same Thunderbolt bus with DNxIO, DNxIQ, DNxIV
Support for HP Thunderbolt card will be first half 2018
DNxIO would require TB3 to TB2 converter
Thunderbolt 3 offers support of cable lengths up to
60-meters
(via qualified Corning Thunderbolt cables)
for users needing to physically place the Artist DNxIO
at longer distances from the host CPU Workstation.
