The PC share box enables you to dramatically cut computing costs by sharing the untapped power of PCs. The access devices, Ethernet-based User eXtension Protocol, and PC share software work together to efficiently harness excess computing capacity and enable multiple users to share a single PC. Best of all, IT staff and end users do not need special training because this end-to-end solution is easy to manage and is compatible with standard PC applications.
Features
The PC share box devices do not have a CPU, hard drive or CD-ROM, yet most users find it indistinguishable from a full PC environment since it runs a normal User Account assigned by the host’s OS. PC share box exclusive technology allows you to add up to 30 access devices to your existing PC. Each access device offers a full and independent computing experience.
Simultaneous desktop operation: Each access device connects to a workspace created by PC share box on the host PC OS and can run its virtual desktop concurrently and independently through Ethernet.
Minimal Maintenance Required: You only have to maintain and upgrade the host PC since the access devices have no CPU, hard drive, or CD-ROM.
Compact design: Allows more room in your office or on your desk, and can even mount on the back of your LCD monitor with included bracket.
Eco-friendly: Since the access devices have no moving parts, it makes no noise and saves energy by drawing only 5 watts.
