N-series thin clients for Citrix HDX
Partner FAQ
24. What are the Numo 3 design specs that support the HDX SoC Ready program?
• Numo3 includes a number of CODECs (code-decoders) that are utilized in the N500 to provide direct hard-
ware support for accelerated video support. This support not only improves the video quality but also helps
o-load tasks on the host server that enables greater user density per server and less network bandwidth
consumption. The SoC technology implemented in the N-series is a win-win-win implementation as it repre-
sents a win for lower cost thin clients, a win for lower server costs and a win for lower infrastructure costs.
• The latest generation of the Numo chip is based on a high performance multi-core, ARM Cortex A9 CPU with
a custom multimedia engine that supports a broad array of compression & decompression technologies.
With power consumption at less than 2 watts, it provides computation capabilities that are similar and in
some scenarios better than modern PCs but a fraction of the cost and power envelope. Further information
on Numo 3 can be found at: http://www.ncomputing.com/products/technologies.
25. How does support for the Citrix SoC program work?
• The N-series features a newly developed Citrix Receiver that has been optimized to run on SoC based thin
clients. Since the Barcelona SoC program announcement the NComputing and Citrix engineering teams
have been working in close collaboration to bring this technology to market.
