Devon IT Announces Availability Of New NTAVO PXE Boot Thin Client Terminal
LTSP-capable thin client terminals, starting at $149, ease desktop support requirements and enhance network performance.
King of Prussia, PA, December 16, 2004 – Devon IT, the information technology products subsidiary of the Devon Group today announced the availability of NTAVO Pre-boot Execution Environment (PXE) Boot thin client terminal.
With the Pre-boot Execution Environment (PXE), the thin client terminal becomes bootable off of the network. The PXE capability gives system administrators a way to boot a system without having to know anything about its operating environment. With pre-OS accessibility built in, system administrators can automate software installation, system configuration and burn-in procedures. This approach reduces staff costs for installation and eliminates human errors. The ability to customize software loading is crucial for enterprise IT departments of all sizes.
"The remote accessibility of our new PXE Boot Terminal can eliminate the need to manually install software on desktops on the network," explained Ning Liu, President and CEO. "With PXE in place, the network administrator can automatically load and configure the operating system and all needed application software remotely."
The NTAVO PXE terminal (6010P) addresses the need to integrate remote accessibility into networked terminals with the Pre-boot Execution Environment (PXE). The PXE software enables a thin client terminal on the network to be booted remotely, even though it does not possess an operating system (OS).
PXE-based remote system setup is an attractive new feature for system administrators because it helps end users reduce support needs, simplifies network administration, and improves network manageability. All of these factors help reduce the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of the network.
Features of the NTAVO PXE Boot Terminal include:
- Designed specifically for Server Centric Computing
- No software installation required . Simplifies deployment
- Centralized management
- No moving parts (i.e. hard drive) to fail
