Late this afternoon, HP announced the availability of the HP t5740e Thin Client, the company’s first thin client featuring WES7 SP1 with RDP 7.1 to enable Microsoft RemoteFX technology. I’ve included more information below, which has been posted on Microsoft’s Windows Embedded Standard blog.
At Microsoft TechEd Berlin last fall, HP – the worldwide leader in thin client shipments – was the first thin client manufacturer to showcase a technology demonstration of a hardware-based RFX solution. Building on this leadership, HP is announcing today the availability of its first thin client featuring WES7 SP1 with RDP 7.1 to enable RemoteFX, the HP t5740e Thin Client.
Through a software-based implementation, integrating Microsoft RemoteFX (RFX) technology enables the HP t5740e Thin Client to deliver a richer, local-like user experience for Microsoft Remote Desktop Services Session Host (previously known as Terminal Server) desktop and virtual desktop infrastructure customers. By leveraging the power of virtualized graphics and advanced codecs, remote workers are able to access any type of application or screen content, including rich media and 3D applications.
The HP t5740e Thin Client offers a top-notch user experience, flexible expansion and high reliability for Microsoft client virtualization environments, and comes pre-loaded with the industry’s most comprehensive management solutions. The t5740e Thin Client includes support for local applications and a full browser, as well as strengthened security with a choice of enhanced file-based write filters.
