HP Rolls Out Desktop Thin Clients

HP has released two new desktop thin client products, called the Compaq t5730 and the t5735. The HP Compaq t5730 is based on Microsoft Windows XPe and select models include integrated WLAN. Based on Debian Linux, the HP Compaq t5735 supports a variety of open source applications.

Both solutions include a combination of desktop-like features, high-end graphics, the HP Secure USB Compartment and HP Quick Release support for business environments requiring a combination of simplicity, flexibility, power and enhanced security.
In addition to centralised data storage for greater protection of business information and data integrity, the two new thin clients provide controlled user access and support two-factor user authentication.

 
Supporting a flexible and reliable infrastructure, the new thin client devices can be used as desktop appliances with Citrix’s desktop virtualisation solution, Citrix XenDesktop, maximising performance for the most demanding business environments.

 

For customers who need an easy-to-use deployment tool with basic capabilities, exclusive HP ThinState Tools are included with every HP thin client. With this tool, the t5730, for example, can easily deploy images to other thin clients in the network with no need to buy, install or learn any external deployment solution.

The HP Compaq t5730 and t5735 Thin Clients are available at a starting list price of $650 and $600, respectively.
