Chip PC Revolutionary Line-up of Zero Clients To Be Unveiled at Citrix Synergy 2012

May 9, 2012, DALLAS,TX,

Chip PC Technologies, a technological leader in desktop replacement and thin computing, today announced that it will be introducing its new class of zero clients, specifically designed for the Citrix desktop virtualization solutions, including Citrix XenDesktop®, Citrix XenApp™ and Citrix VDI-in-a-Box™. This revolutionary zero client solution speeds enterprise deployments of Citrix desktop virtualization, and at the same time provides a powerful user experience in a compact, cost-effective and green zero client.

 

The new Chip PC ZD8541 zero clients offer rapid boot into Citrix Receiver™ with plenty of computing power in a small form factor device to deliver first class user experience. Built on the new Marvell Dove Armada 510 processor, the ZD8541 offers 4 USB 2.0 ports and DVI-I graphics interface supporting dual screen and high resolutions. The new ZD8541 zero clients own a small form factor and consume only 5 Watts at full operating mode.

          

“Our objective from the start is centered on ease-of-use and a seamless integration into desktop virtualization environments,” said David Freidenberg, CEO of Chip PC. "By integrating Citrix Receiver into our new zero clients, Chip PC offers customers a solution that delivers simplicity, compact form factor, fast boot and low power consumption side by side with best Citrix HDX user experience, high definition graphics and dual display support. And on top of all these benefits, we will be launching it at an introduction price to the market for a limited time frame".

 

"Citrix has been working with key partners to incorporate HDX capabilities into devices that leverage SoCs to help drive down the costs of virtual desktop endpoints and deliver a superior user experience," said Aimee Catalano, vice president, alliance marketing at Citrix. “The new line-up of zero clients from Chip PC is optimized for Citrix desktop virtualization solutions to provide a high-definition user experience with HDX technology.”

 

Leveraging years of experience, Chip PC continues to integrate its core strategy of providing state-of-the-art cold technology into its revolutionary products. With the Chip PC ZD8541 zero client, IT administrators can deploy faster, spend less time maintaining end points, and reduce power consumption resulting in IT savings.

 

The new ZD8541 zero client appliances will be offered at an especially attractive pricing of $179 ECP from Chip PC partners and will be available June 2012.
