Teradici Corporation announced the expansion of the company's popular PCoIP zero client ecosystem. With more than 20 participating partners, Teradici's PCoIP ecosystem delivers a variety of products and solutions from leading OEMs and partners, providing secure and high performance platforms to deliver effective desktop virtualization.

The new zero client solutions, powered by the PCoIP hardware engine, virtually eliminate the need for desktop management because they contain no CPU, application OS, device drivers, fan or hard drive. Significant benefits for IT organizations in healthcare, education, government and other market sectors include low operational cost, increased security capabilities, a rich user experience, and future-proof desktop scalability.

"With more than 20 participating vendors, Teradici has established a powerful ecosystem of PCoIP zero client solutions to meet the needs of the global virtual desktop market," said Dan Cordingley, president and CEO, Teradici. "By leveraging PCoIP technology, these new solutions from Cisco, ClearCube Technology, Elo TouchSystems, LG, Samsung, and VXL deliver an unparalleled desktop virtualization and remote workstation user experience."

The new PCoIP zero client solutions from Cisco, ClearCube, Elo TouchSystems, LG, Samsung, and VXL will be on display during VMworld at Teradici's booth #1013:

Cisco VXC 2111 and 2211 Series Zero Clients

Delivered as part of Cisco Virtualization Experience Infrastructure (VXI), an end-to-end system for desktop virtualization, Cisco VXC dramatically simplifies deployment, management and provisioning with increased security. VXC 2111 attaches to the back of select Cisco Unified IP phone models. Cisco VXC 2211 is a standalone endpoint that can be used with other phones or when no phone is required. Both are PCoIP zero clients that support Power over Ethernet, reducing the costs of power, cabling and device management.

ClearCube Cloud Desktop ClientCube

The stateless ClientCube integrates ClearCube's VMware Ready zero clients with a NIAP-approved secure KVM (keyboard-video-mouse) switch to create a multi-network secure workstation solution. The ClientCube is the first secure cross domain solution utilizing PCoIP technology. By integrating with zero clients that connect to computing resources in the data center via the PCoIP protocol, ClientCube delivers unsurpassed secure centralized computing performance in a small footprint form factor that optimizes end-user productivity.

Elo TouchSystems 1928T Touchscreen Monitor

The Elo TouchSystems 1928T includes the PCoIP zero client processor from Teradici. The newly designed zero client features 7 USB ports and the ability to connect a second monitor all within the same package as the Elo TouchSystems 1928 monitor.
