vSpace Client for Windows is a software client that enables
a user to securely access their centrally managed virtual desktop
and applications hosted on a vSpace Server. vSpace Client expands access options
beyond NComputing client devices to include Windows-based laptops, netbooks and re-purposed
desktop PCs. It also enables high-performance, low cost and easy to manage acc
ess for Bring Your Own
Device (BYOD) environments.
Some examples of how you can use vSpace Client in your environment include:
- Enable older PCs to access newer operating systems and applications
hosted on a vSpace server
- Enable any PC to access an single application hosted on a vSpace Server (Kiosk mode)
- Make it easy to manage PCs brought by employees or contractors to work
. Manage only their
central vSpace-based desktops that are kept separate from the users’ local PC desktops
-
Enable employees or students to access vSpace sessions hosted at work/school from home
- Provide mobile access to vSpace from Windows-based netbooks and laptops
- Use vSpace Client to remotely access and manage vSpace Servers
Note that while NComputing L-series
devices connect to one vSpace session at a time, PCs running
vSpace Client can connect to more than one session and more than one vSpace h
ost at the same time.
vSpace Client supports keyboard, mouse, display, and audio in/out redirection from the PC to the
vSpace host. USB devices connected to the client computer (such as a disk-on-
key) remain available to
the local client computer only and are NOT redirected to the vSpace virtual desktop session.
System Requirements
vSpace Client is only supported by servers running vSpace Server 6.6.2.3 or newer (you
cannot connect
vSpace Client to host servers running vSpace 4 or 5). For installation of vSpace Server refer to the
