NEC India has launched US100 a new system, which includes the next generation
of thin-client computing device. It provides a high level of IP telephony and
video processing quality in the smallest thin-client footprint.
The device is designed to achieve the multimedia performance through the
employment of NetClient, the advanced system-on-a-chip solution that
incorporates technologies from NEC and ServerEngines LLC.
The new system also features VMware Virtual Desktop Infrastructure
pre-installed and pre-integrated with NEC systems through collaboration
established under the VMware Virtual Desktop Infrastructure Alliance program.
Using NEC's Virtual PC-Class Thin Client System, enterprises large and small
can realize reductions in installation costs up to 40 per cent.
In addition to the robust security and mobility of Thin Client systems, the
new offerings are able to deliver a business environment that utilizes IP
telephony and video that is comparable to that of an environment known to
standard business PCs or rich clients but at a lower cost. NEC's US100 helps to
reduce power consumption by more than 60 per cent, as compared to conventional
systems that employ business PCs.
Kazuhiko Kobayashi, Executive VP of NEC Corp, said, "With more mobile
innovations in the ICT industry and faster technological adaptations in recent
years, NEC believes that businesses and economies worldwide are evolving from a
PC-based computing model to a network-centric computing model. We are optimistic
about this new thin client business, and plan to grow it into a $1.25 billion
business for our global operations in the next three years."
NEC India will work with its customers to introduce new solutions and
services in the networking society supported by Next Generation Network (NGN),
mainly its Virtual PC-Class Thin Client System, the result of NEC's vision of
NGN integrated technologies. Page(s) 1
