IGEL Technology Extends Unified Workspace Management Capabilities with Support for Dell Wyse 5000 and 7000 Series Thin ClientsIGEL Technology Sales Corp. today announced that it has expanded its portfolio of unified workspace management solutions to include the IGEL Universal Desktop Converter 2 (UDC2). An updated version of the IGEL UDC, the UDC2 adds Dell (News - Alert) Wyse 5000 and 7000 series thin clients to the growing list of endpoint devices supported by the software. "The IGEL UDC2 is ideal for businesses that are looking to simplify the remote management of their desktops, or transition more smoothly to a VDI environment," said Simon Richards, Managing Director, IGEL North America. "By adding support for Dell Wyse 5000 and 7000 series thin clients, we are making it even easier for IT organizations to convert their existing desktops from leading suppliers that are used in cloud and virtual environments into IGEL thin and zero clients, while gaining all the benefits of simplified, central remote management." Matthias Haas, Director Product Management for IGEL Technology adds, "This approach means that IT organizations do not have to make immediate capital expenditures to purchase new desktops when they migrate to a VDI environment."
Thin Client Conversion with UDC2 Local conversion of endpoint devices into IGEL thin and zero clients leveraging the UDC2 software can be achieved through either a UDC token or USB device. Network conversion requires an IGEL UDC Deployment Appliance Server combined with a PXE server and web GUI.
Simple and Secure Remote Management
