Product Overview
The L-series access devices enable you to dramatically cut computing costs by sharing
the untapped power of PCs. The access devices, Ethernet-based User eXtension
Protocol, and vSpace software work together to efficiently harness excess computing
capacity and enable multiple users to share a single PC. Best of all, IT staff and end
users do not need special training because this end-to-end solution is easy to manage
and is compatible with standard PC applications.
What is vSpace Virtual Desktop software?
NComputing vSpace desktop virtualization software divides your host PC's resources
into independent virtual workspaces that give each user their own full PC experience.
With a server operating system on the host (e.g., Microsoft Windows Server 2003,
Server 2008, or Linux), up to 30 users can be supported simultaneously.

Features
The L-series access devices do not have a CPU, hard drive or CD-ROM, yet most users
find it indistinguishable from a full PC environment since it runs a normal User Account
assigned by the host’s OS. The L-series exclusive technology allows you to add up to 30
access devices to your existing PC. Each access device offers a full and independent
computing experience.
Simultaneous desktop operation
Each access device connects to a workspace created by vSpace on the host PC OS and
can run its virtual desktop concurrently and independently through Ethernet.
Minimal Maintenance Required
You only have to maintain and upgrade the host PC since the access devices have no
CPU, hard drive, or CD-ROM.
Small sleek design
Allows more room in your office or on your desk, and can even mount on the back of
your LCD monitor with included bracket.
Eco-friendly
Since the access devices have no moving parts, it makes no noise and saves energy by
drawing only 5 watts.
Supports multiple resolutions
