Connecting Displays: NVIDIA Quadro NVS 280 ─ 64MB DDR, PCI Express x16

DVS-59 Connector • Sample Cable Connectors

The NVIDIA Quadro NVS 280 PCIe-based graphics card is equipped with one high-density single-link DVS-59 Connector.

DMS-59 Connector

The DMS-59 connector (Figure 1) on your NVIDIA Quadro NVS 280 PCIe-based graphics card is only for use with a cable connector that has the DMS-59 connector (Figure 2).

Your DMS-59 cable connector can have multiple DVI and/or VGA connectors for use with either two digital displays or two analog displays. Sample cable connectors are shown below in Figure 3; see Sample Cable Connectors.

Attach your DMS-59 cable connector to the DMS-59 output connector located on your NVIDIA Quadro NVS 280 PCIe graphics card.
If you need additional installation information, refer to the user documentation provided with your display (monitor).

Note: Sample cable connectors are shown below in Sample Cable Connectors.
