Introduction

What is a Neoware XPe Thin Client?

The Neoware XPe thin client harnesses the power of Microsoft’s Windows XP Embedded in an intelligent, customizable, and easily manageable computing device without hard drive, fan, or other mov- ing parts for completely silent, long-lasting operation.

Neoware’s XPe thin clients run Microsoft's industry-standard XPe operating system. Neoware’s open approach to XPe allows you to customize our XPe thin clients to fit virtually any computing envi- ronment. In addition, Neoware has added its ezFeatures which include:

ezManage – Full remote management capabilities built into every version of Neoware software. With Neoware’s remote management software suite — ezRemote Manager — customers can update and configure Neoware thin clients without ever visiting the desktop. ezRemote Manager software provides administrators with complete central management including: device discovery, asset management, remote configuration, remote software updates, and installation of additional software components (via Neoware’s ezSnap technol- ogy). Also, by using ezRemote Manager, administrators can copy a customized configuration from one XPe thin client to another, or to thousands of others.

ezSecure – ezSecure enables system administrators to completely lock down Neoware software from unauthorized user intervention.

ezSnap – ezSnap permits you to add new functionality, update exist- ing software, or modify configurations in your Neoware thin clients, without having to upload or download an entire software image.

Neoware XPe thin clients can connect to servers running Microsoft® Windows® Server 2003, Microsoft Windows 2000 Server (as well as Advanced Server and Datacenter Server versions), Microsoft Win- dows NT 4.0 Server, Terminal Server Edition (TSE), and to servers that are running Citrix MetaFrame® and WinFrame®. Neoware XPe thin clients can also connect to XP Professional desktops. Using Neoware’s TeemTalk terminal emulation suite (optional), you can also connect to mainframes and midrange computers. Your XPe thin client also comes fully configured to communicate with USB, serial, and parallel devices, and (depending on the hardware series) may include a PCI/ISA or PCMCIA slot for expandability.
