LEAF OS is deeply integrated with vSpace Pro Enterprise session to provide extensive USB peripheral compatibility. Supported USB peripheral devices in vSpace sessions include:

  • USB webcams for video conferencing
  • USB printers and network printers
  • USB mass storage devices
  • USB & analog audio devices including headsets and speaker
  • USB smart card readers and security keys

The vSpace Client and VERDE Client connection mode is enabled without any LEAF OS device activation. However, un-activated LEAF OS devices will not be able to perform any software/firmware updates and cannot be managed by PMC Endpoint Management.
For full LEAF OS feature set management and software/firmware update capability, the separate NComputing PMC Endpoint Management solution (version 2.6.1 or higher) is required.

Unlike the NComputing RX300 thin client devices, the LEAF OS devices do not include embedded vSpace Client connection licenses. Appropriate vSpace Client connection licenses need to be purchased and added to the vSpace Pro Enterprise deployments to allow uninterrupted vSpace Client connections from LEAF OS devices. Without the necessary licenses, the vSpace sessions will run in trial mode and will be disconnected after 10 minutes.

LEAF OS can be used to repurpose PCs and laptops by converting any x86-64 hardware from a stand-alone computer to a dedicated thin client by installing directly onto an internal hard drive and removing the old system and files. This method extends the usefulness of aging computers using end-of-life operating systems like Windows 7 while giving users powerful up-to-date desktops.
