Providing you with a secure ubiquitous office
The major benefits of NEC's Virtual PC Center.
 NEC's new thin client system solution integrates and centralizes customer assets (such as data and applications) entirely on servers in the data centre in order to fulfill three requirements:
This product is designed to achieve the next step in platform environment. For this model, operating systems and applications on multiple PCs used by end users are virtualised and then run simultaneously on a single server. From the localized thin client terminals, end users can access their virtual PCs on a server using a screen, keyboard and mouse. All of the data and applications are stored on the server, leaving no data stored locally on the client terminals.

Optimal Resource Allocation
There are 6 major characteristics of NEC's Virtual PC Center.
In addition, if the virtual PCs on one server become overloaded and the server's resource is not sufficient, some of these demanding virtual PCs can be moved to another server with available capacity. This operation does not affect the end user who is executing a task on the virtual PC being moved. Multiple server resources are considered to be one pool of resources and are optimally allocated to virtual PCs. Moving a virtual PC from one server to another is a very effective function not only at the time of high resource needs, but also when failures are detected or during maintenance operation. Creating a new virtual PC is also a simple operation that can be done in about 10 minutes using a template from the management console in the server. These are some of the unique benefits provided by VPCC using virtualisation technology. Preferential server resource distribution to high-load virtual PCs.  Resources can freely be distributed to each virtual PC in a server. When a virtual PC's load becomes high, unused CPU/memory in the server are preferentially distributed to a high-load virtual PC. Automatic virtual PC transfer to low-load servers.  System detects high-load status if the status continue for a given length of time. A virtual PC is transferred to a low-load server to adjust load balance. The virtual PC transfer is performed at short times without stopping business. Easy to add virtual PCs  Virtual PC addition is available at short times by GUI operation in the management screen. TCO Reduction
There are 6 major characteristics of NEC's Virtual PC Center.
As a result, compared with TCO of owning traditional business PCs for three years, this system's cost is 40% lower.  Smooth Streaming Video
There are 6 major characteristics of NEC's Virtual PC Center.
As a result, increasing use of video content as well as video conferencing is now possible in the thin client environment.  Voice over IP Telephony
There are 6 major characteristics of NEC's Virtual PC Center.
VoIP with a voice quality as high as desktop phone systems is now possible in a thin client environment. By enhancing these multimedia functions, the system realizes for the first time a performance that is a match for traditional PCs.  Ubiquitous Work Environment
There are 6 major characteristics of NEC's Virtual PC Center.
End users can retrieve their own desktop environment, regardless of which thin client terminal they are using. By using NEC's US100, users can also use their personal phone numbers from any terminal. The system can provide a ubiquitous work environment where our own desktop and our own phone lines are accessible anywhere. Many benefits can be drawn from there, including productivity improvement by enhancing individuals' mobility.  Ecology
There are 6 major characteristics of NEC's Virtual PC Center.
As stated thus far, NEC Virtual PC Center is able to expand the conventional notions of thin client capabilities. The system delivers the same performance level as traditional PCs, while significantly reducing TCO and providing robust security measures.  Thin Client - Your Solution
The criteria that IT organizations use for selecting client terminals are rapidly changing in order to improve the infrastructure manageability. The priority is shifting from reliability of the client terminals to minimizing management and maintenance costs, as well as preventing potential data loss. While maintaining the performance and functionality standards of current PCs, three benefits that will drastically improve the IT organization's responsiveness and create a successful client terminal environment can be provided by a thin client system; Reduced Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), Ensure information security, and Maintain ubiquitous computing. There are several methods for realizing an effective thin client system: Virtual PC Type, Net Boot Type, Screen Transfer Type. Among these methods, the Virtual PC Type thin client system improves client environments by sharing PC operating systems and applications that are used by multiple end users on consolidated servers in a virtualised environment. From a localized thin client terminal, end users can access their data on a secure data centre server through a virtualised PC with a display, keyboard and mouse.  Thin Client is the Solution
Low operation cost, a reduction of TCO's and flexible administration are just some of the advantages of thin client terminals. Thin client terminals present themselves as a credible alternative to the regular PC. The thin client terminals do not have a hard disk and do not require any local processing capacity. Equipped with a simplified electronic card and a pre-loaded operating system, they have lifespan twice as long as that of a PC. Benefit of Thin Client System
1. Security & information access
2. TCO Reduction
3. Simple IT Management
However traditional thin client devices have have a limit to both quality and functionability... NEC has solved these problems and offer the most advanced thin client solution on the market - The VPCC. VPCC Components
NEC provides the hardware and software, as well as integrated service including diagnosis and consulting on client environments, optimal system design, system implementation, and operation of an asset management service system. In other words, we offer a total solution that caters to each customer's needs in terms of security, central management of data and applications, server integration, and integration operation management. All of these components that make up the global solution, The Virtual PC Centre. Thin Client Terminals

Thin Client terminal US100 / TCM160
Desktop terminal US100 The US100 is the first Thin Client device to provide rich PC-quality high-speed video and audio processing delivering the next generation in thin client technology:
The US100 was created through a collaborative effort between NEC Corporation, NEC Electronics, ServerEngines and Wyse Technology, the leading vendor in the Thin Client terminal market. 
Mobile notebook terminal TCM160 Notebook terminal (A4 size) for mobile use Equipped with Windows XP Embedded with access to server via mobile card and wireless LAN service, supports VPN (Virtual Private Network) environment, realizing highly usable terminal. Virtual PC Server
Advanced solution "All-In-One"; NEC Express5800/Virtual PC Center (VPCC) Models realizes low-cost, next generation Virtual PC-Class Thin Client System 1. NEC Express5800/VPCC Virtual PC Server with pre-installed server function The server is powered by VMware Virtual Desktop Infrastructure loaded with middleware and a client operating system that operates up to 20 units of virtual PC-class Thin Client terminals. As a result, the system can be installed and fully operational in a shorter time and at a lower cost than traditional Thin Client architectures. 2. NEC Express5800/VPCC Management Server pre-installed The NEC Express5800/VPCC Management Server provides centralized management over the entire VPCC system in an integrated fashion. The VPCC Management Server is loaded with middleware, which significantly simplifies PC administrative tasks over traditional desktop system management and traditional Thin Client management functions. Tasks such as reallocation of VPCC resources, addition of application software, bulk application of security patches, and advanced security provisioning provide system administrators enhanced efficiency and flexibility. With its detailed features for managing clients, this server achieves a significant reduction in operation and management costs after installation, compared to traditional business PC environments. The Express5800/VPCC Management Server is realized through the integration of VMware Infrastructure and NEC integrated platform management software.
