Wyse Virtual Desktop Accelerator
Wyse
®
Virtual Desktop Accelerator (VDA) is a software product that, when used with
Wyse thin clients and supported PCs, provides an “accelerated” user experience on

a Wyse VDA session with a server located thousands of miles from your client “feels”
similar to a non-accelerated session with a server located just a few hundred miles from
your client.
Built for use on high-bandwidth high-latency networks that are prone to packet loss
situations, primary use cases for Wyse VDA include:
