L300 Key Features

Performs in your environment

Whether playing DVD-quality full-screen video or connecting specialized USB 2.0 devices, the L300 has the power and flexibility to work in the environment you choose.

Fits your budget, today & tomorrow

The L300 redefines performance and value for thin-client or zeroclient devices. A complete virtual desktop solution can be deployed for less than half the cost of PCs, with ongoing management savings of 75% and power savings of over 90%.

Easy to deploy

Whether you need four workstations in a remote branch office or four thousand in a corporate office, the L300 can be deployed easily using vSpace management tools.

Easy to manage

The L300 is a zero management client. Once deployed, there are no applications, software, or drivers to manage on the device. vSpace software centrally handles firmware changes without requiring user intervention.

Ethernet virtual desktop

Enterprise IT departments are actively searching for less expensive ways to purchase, deploy, and manage employee desktops.  Desktop virtualization has been considered the cure-all for this headache, but users are still concerned about virtual desktop performance and multimedia support. NComputing shatters this perception by delivering rich multimedia playback, powerful yet simple deployment and management tools, and an industry-leading price point via its next-generation access device—the L300 virtual desktop with vSpace™ Server desktop virtualization software.

NComputing, the market leader in deployed virtual desktops, has delivered more than 2.5 million low-cost access devices worldwide. The newest access device, the L300 virtual desktop, delivers rich fullscreen, full-motion multimedia playback; transparent USB redirection; and unparalleled peripheral support. Combined with the NComputing vSpace Server, the L300 now provides enterprises with a simple-to-deploy, low-cost means to implement a complete virtual desktop infrastructure in hours.

vSpace virtualization software—get more from your VDI investment

NComputing vSpace Server enables enterprises to optimize virtual desktop deployments by providing multiple end users with simultaneous access to a single operating system instance of either  Windows or Linux. vSpace not only integrates into virtualization server deployments based on VMware, Citrix and Microsoft offerings, but can also extend their value by changing the typical virtual desktop structure from one user per virtual machine to 100 users per virtual machine. This has a direct, positive impact on operational expenses and immediately lowers overall desktop PC costs such as support, maintenance, and desktop replacement.

The L300 access device—next-generation media acceleration

With the L300, watching DVD-quality video on up to a 1920×1080 display comes standard for most common media formats. The game-changing access device comes packaged in a sleek lowpower package that can be easily mounted on a monitor or secured to a desk. Powered by a new NComputing Numo System-on-Chip (SoC), the L300 uses patent-pending hardware technology to decode and scale multimedia locally, eliminating network strain. The L300 access device costs less than any other thin- or zero-client options and a quarter of the cost of desktop PCs. In combination with the NComputing vSpace Server, it enables VDI solutions at one-third the price of traditional offerings.

Feature                                              Function                                                                          Benefit

host-optimizeD viDeo acceLeration	Video content played through standalone media players or embedded into web pages may be transcoded, streamed, locally decoded, and scaled up to 1920×1080 resolution at full frame rates.	Users will experience PC-quality video without excessive hostside processing or requiring a local PC or thin client with media player and codec support
high-avaiLaBiLity Login	Administrator may define a failover group  list of hosts to which devices may automatically connect	Each user can be assured a login within seconds, even in the event of a host failure, without complex central management servers and agents
express DepLoyment tooLs	Administrators may define a device template with all settings and configurations so that it may be cloned and pushed to new devices	Thousands of devices may be easily deployed without manual configuration—and without requiring the installation of complex centralized management infrastructure
vmWare anD citrix support	Leverage VMware to deploy multiple instances of vSpace, multiplying the number of users per server, or integrate the Citrix Receiver to deploy XenApp-based applications	Extend the benefits of vSpace and the L300 for large deployments by leveraging server and application virtualization technologies
zero management	The L300 is easy to configure and automatically receives updates from deployed vSpace servers	The L300 is easy to configure and is automatically managed by the vSpace server, unlike thin clients that require complex management tools to deal with locally installed applications or so-called “zero clients” that require complex networking and management server setup
transparent usB reDirection	The L300 includes 2 USB 2.0 ports that transparently redirect bulk, HID, mass-storage class, and printer devices back to the server where the native driver is installed	No local management of drivers is required to support USB devices
zero-Footprint instaLLation	The L300 includes a convenient VESA mounting option for LCD displays	Keep the desktop clutter-free by mounting the L300 device to the back of an LCD monitor
