IBM NetVista N2200 Thin Client
The NetVista N2200 Thin Client addresses customer environments where space,
ease-of-use, reliability, and cost are serious concerns. The NetVista N2200 connects and
boots via a LAN attachment to an AIX, OS/400, and Windows NT server. It can run
applications from those servers or from an S/390 that is network-connected to a boot server.
The NetVista N2200 allows access to Windows applications plus concurrent access to
multiple terminal sessions. The user can also run small Java applications and take advantage
of the emerging class of applications that use a thin Java GUI to transform existing
character-based applications into easy-to-use graphical ones. Both direct attachment of USB
devices and attachment via a cable adapter for devices that require serial or parallel ports are
supported. The NetVista N2200 is an excellent solution for such applications as:
• Front counter applications (such as POS systems linked to back-office and production
applications)
• Walk-up or kiosk environments (such as warehouses or lobbies)
The Series 2200 can easily replace aging or under-used PCs or outdated terminals. Consider
it your low-cost, secure access to:
• E-mail
• The Internet
• Stored information
• 5250/3270 applications
The IBM NetVista Zero-Footprint option is available. It allows any NetVista N2200 Thin Client
to be attached to the back of an IBM T55 or F56 Flat Panel Display to reduce the amount of
desktop “real estate” needed.
