The new NSC230 and NSC130 dramatically cut computing costs by sharing the untapped power of standard PCs. Best of all, IT staff and end users do not need special training because our solutions are easy to manage, eco-friendly and compatible with standard PC applications. The NSC230 and NSC130 can use standard Ethernet infrastructure, so that your users can be located as far away from your shared PCs as you need them to be.

NSC 230 with Microphone

NSC 130

NSC230 and NSC130 bring enhanced graphics performance (with improved color depth and widescreen support) and a microphone port-all in a stylish new smaller chassis (just 1 inch tall and 4.5 inches square) that takes absolutely no desktop space at all when mounted to the back of a monitor. We even include the mounting bracket at no charge.

NSC230 and NSC130 include VGA support (resolutions up to 1280x1024 or 1440x900 for widescreen), an Ethernet connection, PS/2 keyboard and mouse ports, audio output, and power cable connections. The NSC230 also has a USB port for flash memory devices and an audio input for microphones. The NSC130 does not have the USB port or microphone input and is recommended for the ultimate in economy and security.

Configuration

With the multi-station solution, each user has an individual workstation that consists of a standard monitor, keyboard, mouse and speakers (not included). However, instead of connecting directly to a PC, these peripherals connect to the access terminal.

The very inexpensive and highly reliable of these access terminals connects to our terminal services software on the host PC over standard Ethernet cables (plus routers, switches, etc.). Our terminal services software enables the host PC to create unique and simultaneous user sessions so that each user gets their own rich and robust PC experience. A PC that is running a desktop OS (such as Microsoft Windows XP®) and Vista can support up to ten users. Server operating systems (like Microsoft Windows 2003 and 2008 Server® or Linux) support up to 30 simultaneous users.
