Built for everyday productivity

USB

Broad USB peripheral support

Connect the peripherals users rely on every day, including keyboards and mice, storage devices, printers, scanners, smart card readers, headsets, speakers, webcams, and other supported USB devices. Compatible peripherals can be redirected into supported virtual desktop sessions for a more natural desktop experience.

Ethernet & Wifi

Flexible Ethernet and Wi-Fi deployment

Connect over wired Ethernet where fixed infrastructure and consistent network access are preferred, or use Wi-Fi where cabling is impractical. Flexible networking makes it easier to deploy endpoints across offices, classrooms, shared spaces, and other work environments.

Chromium

Local application support

LEAF OS can run select applications locally on the endpoint, providing direct access to tools such as the Chromium browser and supported progressive web applications without routing every interaction through the virtual desktop. IT administrators retain centralized control over which local applications are available.

Microsoft Teams

Microsoft Teams optimization

On supported virtualization platforms, Microsoft Teams optimization processes audio and video locally on the endpoint instead of sending the full media workload through the virtual session. The result is smoother calls, clearer audio and video, and a more responsive collaboration experience.


RX520 Dual Monitor

4K dual display

RX540 and RX580 deliver exceptional multimedia capabilities for knowledge workers, supporting resolutions up to 4K with native dual-display through two HDMI ports.


PMC Endpoint Manager

Central management software keeps things optimized

PMC gives you a single pane of glass to configure, monitor, and maintain your NComputing endpoints wherever they are. Save time, reduce IT overhead, and keep every workspace running at its best.

Checkmark

Centralized configuration

Deploy settings, policies, and restrictions across devices and locations in seconds.

Checkmark

Remote updates

Push firmware and software updates remotely to keep endpoints secure and up to date.

Checkmark

Visibility across deployments

Real-time device status, alerts, and reports help you stay in control at every scale.

vCast

Supercharge video streaming — without expensive GPUs

vCAST Streaming sends web and local video content directly to supported NComputing endpoints, reducing server-side CPU and bandwidth demands while maintaining a high-quality HD video experience.

  • Lower server load: Reduce CPU resources consumed by video playback.
  • Support more users: Preserve server capacity for additional concurrent desktop sessions.
  • Avoid unnecessary GPU infrastructure: Deliver smooth video without adding costly server-side GPU resources.

vCAST Streaming is built into vSpace Pro Enterprise and can also be enabled for Microsoft RDS environments with the SuperRDP server pack, available through NComputing resellers (SKU: SuperRDP-PREM-VC-P).
