Datasheet
Up to eleven users on one PC? Absolutely—today’s PCs are so powerful that the
vast majority of people use only a small fraction of their available computing
power. The X-series taps the unused capacity so that up to eleven users can
simultaneously share a single PC. Each user gets their own virtual workspace
(applications, settings, les, and preferences), but at a fraction of what it would
cost with individual computers. So even though eleven people share a single
system, they each get their own rich PC experience.
Easy to install
Each X-series kit contains the powerful, award-winning vSpace desktop virtualization software, a PCI
card, and XD2 access devices. Each X350 kit adds three users to a low prole PC while the X550 kit adds
ve users to a full-sized PC. Setting it up is easy: just install the PCI card and virtualization software
on the shared PC. Then connect the access devices to the PCI card with standard cables. Finally,
connect each user’s monitor, keyboard, and mouse to their access device. That’s all—it’s as simple as
an appliance. Now, multiple users can enjoy their own independent virtual desktops. Add a second kit
and even more users can simultaneously share a single PC—up to 11 with the X550.
Powerful & exible
Software applications run simultaneously and independently on each virtual desktop. Users don’t
even know that they are sharing a PC! Your sta and users won’t need special training. They will also
love getting their desk space back—the XD2 access devices are tiny, silent, mount on the back of the
monitor, and have no moving parts. Yet they give each user a rich Windows or Linux workspace.
Users enjoy multimedia with sound and full-motion video at screen resolutions of up to 1280x1024
or 1440x900 (widescreen).
Economical & ecient
With the NComputing X-series, you can easily lower your computing hardware and support costs by
up to 75%. You will also save money on electricity. The highly ecient X-series uses only 1 watt per
added user (compared to 110 watts for a typical PC). With a long useful life and weighing just a few
ounces, the NComputing solution also greatly reduces e-waste. It is clearly the greenest computing
solution on earth.
Connect up to six users to a single shared computer with one X550 kit (or eleven with two kits)
