4K ULTRA HD SUPPORT, NATIVE DUAL DISPLAY
Powered by Intel x86-64 CPU architecture (Intel Quad-Core N5095 2.0Ghz with burst frequency up to 2.9Ghz) and LEAF OS, EX500W provides exceptional multimedia capabilities demanded by knowledge workers delivering resolutions up to 4K Ultra HD (4096 x 2160) in native dual display. EX500W features dual display capabilities via two HDMI ports.
Next-Level Endpoint Security
By implementing NComputing’s solutions, organizations can enhance endpoint security, safeguard sensitive data, reduce costs, and streamline management. These measures cover the entire endpoint security spectrum, from device boot to locked-down operating systems, secure communications, data leakage prevention, and centralized management. Furthermore, NComputing enables organizations to embrace BYOD initiatives while maintaining a secure computing environment.
Read the NComputing security whitepaper to learn how our endpoint solution enhances next-level endpoint security.
Central management software keeps things optimized
PMC dramatically reduces the administrative overhead needed to maintain and control the environment. A dashboard overview and detailed event log provides valuable information about the deployment. Define device profile configurations and push to individual or grouped devices. Schedule updates including firmware for optimal time slots. Remote login for admins for troubleshooting purposes. Easy-to-use for smaller organizations yet powerful enough to manage large cross-organizational deployments across multiple geographic locations.
BROAD USB PERIPHERAL SUPPORT
EX500W allows transparent redirection of USB peripheral devices (and supports x86 drivers) for mass storage, printers, scanners, smart card readers, headsets or speakers, webcams, COM ports, and 3D mice in addition to the standard keyboards and mice. Network-connected printers can also be redirected to desktop virtualization sessions.
Microsoft Teams Optimization
Available on EX500W thin client and LEAF OS devices, audio and video streams in Microsoft Teams are offloaded from the Microsoft AVD, Windows 365, RDS, Citrix, and VMware Horizon sessions, enabling them to be processed locally on the client device. Deliver clear, crisp high-definition audio-video conferencing with integrated Microsoft Teams Optimization. Users can seamlessly participate in audio-video or audio-only calls to and from other users and other standards-based desktop video and conference room systems.
Local Application Support
LEAF OS includes select local applications that run on the device, not through a virtualization platform. Direct access to the web via Chromium Browser eliminates virtualization lag. Microsoft Teams PWA and Zoom both benefit from direct audio/video relay eliminating common concerns of web conferencing through virtual platforms. Additional 3rd party Linux applications can be installed in LEAF OS via the custom module support to further extend its functionality. LEAF OS controls the availability of these apps and their deployment method, with a Guest Mode option for Kiosk-like use.
Powered by LEAF OS
LEAF OS is our small. Linux-based operating system designed specifically for secure, high-performance access to virtual desktops and cloud workspaces. Flexible in its deployment, LEAF OS enables user access to multiple virtual desktop platforms from thin clients and personal computers. Learn more about LEAF OS.
