Dell has launched a new rack-mounted workstation that can support four concurrent graphics sessions.
The product was originally launched last year, but has only just received certification from Citrix to run a multi-GPU pass-through configuration.
This means that four XenDesktop sessions can run from one machine for four users performing graphics-heavy tasks.
"The Dell Precision R5500 offers the highest user density available on a XenServer certified platform for XenDesktop HDX 3D Pro, with four concurrent users per host," said Derek Thorslund, director of product management for HDX technology at Citrix.
"This makes it a very attractive option for customers looking to deliver high-end 3D professional graphics while keeping their intellectual property safe in the datacentre."
The Precision R5500 features a dual-socket Xeon processor supporting up to 192GB memory, as well as six 2.5-inch SAS HDDs or five SATA HDDs. It also boasts four Nvidia Quadro 2000 GPU adapters and runs Citrix XenServer and HDX 3D Pro remote screen technology.
Citrix XenServer with HDX 3D Pro provides the virtualised workstation environment with a dedicated graphics card per user or virtual machine.
This gives the user full access to the graphics card in a virtualised environment. Users can also remotely access the unit via HDX 3D Pro from thin clients, desktops, laptops and mobile devices using the Citrix Receiver app.
The unit is designed for users running 3D workloads. This unit is aimed particularly at organisations in finance, science, engineering, medical, and software development looking to host many users from one workstation.
UK Pricing for the R5500 starts at 1,899.
