Overview

Discover why AMD has an extensive history of leadership in the thin client market. Our solutions are designed to enable you to create a new generation of thin client devices that help reduce operating costs and power consumption, while lasting longer and providing utterly enjoyable user experiences.

Key Benefits

Fast, Flexible Access

Thin clients provide users with secure, credential-verified access to data and applications in the cloud, regardless of the system they’re using – ideal for environments where users share multiple systems.

Server room or server computers

Ease of Management

Centralized, cloud-based data storage and administration precludes the need to configure, manage and backup individual PCs – cumbersome processes that consume valuable IT resources.

Energy Efficiency

Thin clients can be more energy efficient than desktops due to lower system power footprints, conserving energy at the device level which then ripples throughout the facility infrastructure. Low power consumption with thermals as low as 4.5W for a single CPU core and 6.4W for dual CPU cores.

Security and Protection

With thin clients, all data is stored and protected in the cloud, helping minimize the risk of data loss and/or malicious data tampering and theft at the device level.

Regulatory Compliance

Thin clients are inherently easier than PCs to configure and update as regulatory mandates evolve – patches and updates are applied directly to the cloud infrastructure, and automatically propagated to virtual desktops in the centralized data center.

Reliability

Thin clients can eliminate the need for onboard fans and hard disk drives, thereby minimizing moving parts that can fail and cause additional maintenance costs – industry reports state that on average, thin clients can last 2-3X longer than conventional desktop PCs*.

Ease of Deployment

Simplified, remotely-administered configuration and set up makes thin client deployment virtually effortless, and their compact form factors enable a wide range of configurations in space-constrained environments.

Desk with Laptop and Multiple Computer Screens
