SAN JOSE, Calif.--BUSINESS WIRE--Wyse Technology, the global leader in thin computing and client virtualization, today announced the availability of its highest performing thin clients based on a software solution designed to significantly increase security across virtual clients. The new Wyse C10LE and V10LE include in the latest version of Wyse ThinOS, the industry's most popular purpose-built thin client software.

“As our customers continue to deploy virtual clients, such as the C10LE and V10LE, they are assured of state-of-the art security capabilities through Wyse ThinOS.”

Wyse ThinOS is the most optimized solution for Citrix HDX Citrix XenApp and Citrix XenDesktop, Microsoft RDP Terminal Services and Remote Desktop Services, and VMware View environments. This ultra-thin software layer local to the thin client device enables the client to boot in seconds, automatically update itself without management software, and deliver the administrative simplicity that IT needs. And, with no Windows or Linux APIs, Wyse ThinOS is the most secure thin client software for mixed environments on the market. Viruses are unable to embed themselves in the device or exist in its memory space, eliminating the need for any sort of virus or malware protection on the client. Wyse ThinOS thin clients, including the C10LE and V10LE are the only fully configurable and upgradable thin clients that are virus immune.

"We decided to adopt thin clients based on Wyse ThinOS 6.5 because of the combination of its ease of deployment and integration with Citrix XenDesktop. The breakthrough enhancements continue to make Wyse ThinOS the ideal choice us," said Landon Winburn at University of Texas Medical Branch. "With Wyse ThinOS 6.5, we can rely on exceptional user experience, server scalability and security."

Winburn continued, "Reports of the death of the personal computer may not be greatly exaggerated. Our implementation of C10LE thin clients from Wyse have removed the complexities and management challenges associated with personal computers and provided us with a more streamlined technology infrastructure. In an industry such as ours where reducing costs to be more competitive is of utmost importance, a 40% cost reduction using Wyse thin clients provides us with an incredible advantage."

Combining small size, low total cost of ownership and excellent performance, the new Wyse C10LE thin client sets a new benchmark for use in virtualization and cloud computing environments. Its unique multimedia accelerator ensures a lighter load on the central server and network, enabling Wyse's original Collaborative Processing Architecture™ to deliver the best user experience using Wyse's TCX solutions on VMware, Citrix, and Microsoft virtual environments. The ENERGY STAR® certified, ultra low-power consumption C10LE draws just under 7 watts of power and generates very little heat. As a result, it contributes to cooler working environments, greatly reduced carbon footprints, and huge savings in energy costs when compared to equivalent PC desktops.

"The C10LE is exactly what we have been looking for to replace our student lab computers," said David Nielsen, Director of Technology & Budget at the College of Business Administration, University of Nebraska at Omaha. "It not only meets our needs on the application side, but the C10LE also provides great multimedia and web video playback."

Wyse's fastest and most popular thin client has just become even faster. The Wyse V10L has now transitioned to the V10LE and is 50% faster with a Via C7 Eden 1.2 GHz processor. This increased performance will deliver more vibrant multimedia and graphic capabilities, a feature customers are excited about. Reflecting the needs of ever changing desktop environments the Wyse V10LE thin client has the expandability to match. Adding an extra monitor is simple with built-in dual video support and expanding functionality is straightforward with an optional PC-Card expansion slot.

"We have been working with Wyse thin clients for years now and with the release of the C10LE/V10LE we are now able to reduce the amount of PCs we have in our environment," said Aleem Rahman, System Administrator at Steinweg Handelsveem B.V., headquartered in The Netherlands. "The new Wyse TCX Suite also fulfills the performance and multimedia requirements we are faced with these days that our power-users needed."

Rahman continued, "With the recent release of Wyse ThinOS 6.5, we are now able to simplify our complex environment and reduce the amount of time we are spending on debugging errors. Definitely a new milestone in the Wyse ThinOS series."

"Between electronic medical records EMR, financial security needs and the continuing adoption of cloud computing infrastructures, the importance of data security can't be understated," says Ricardo Antuna, VP, Business Development & Product Management. "As our customers continue to deploy virtual clients, such as the C10LE and V10LE, they are assured of state-of-the art security capabilities through Wyse ThinOS."
