What Is a Thin Client?
A thin client is a compact computer that runs a remote desktop or hosted applications from a central server. Most of the work happens on the server, so the thin client needs less processing power, less storage and less cooling than a full desktop PC. Businesses use thin clients to standardise desktops, reduce maintenance and secure data, since files stay on the server.
Key Specifications
The Thinvent Neo S thin client uses the Intel Celeron J1900 processor from the 7th generation. The processor has 4 cores, runs at up to 2.4 GHz and has 2 MB of cache. The unit includes 4 GB of DDR3 RAM and a 128 GB SSD. It uses a 19V 1.3A power adapter. The Neo S does not include built-in WiFi, so wired Ethernet connects it to the network.
