Features include 4K Ultra HD video, dual monitor ports, gigabit Ethernet, Bluetooth, broad peripheral support and Wi-Fi all controlled by enterprise-grade device management software–a perfect platform for demanding knowledge workers across the organization.
Multi-platform optimization
The EX500 provides optimized multimedia capabilities for several virtualization platforms.
Powered by LEAF OS: Optimized for Citrix desktop virtualization
LEAF OS is our small Linux-based operating system designed specifically for secure, high-performance access to virtual desktops and cloud workspaces. Flexible in its deployment, LEAF OS enables user access to multiple virtual desktop platforms from thin clients and personal computers. Integration with the Citrix Workspace app allows LEAF OS to deliver a compelling software endpoint solution for Citrix enterprise customers.
PMC Endpoint Manager: Central management and express deployment
The EX500 is easy to configure using PMC Endpoint Manager software. Remotely manage devices over local and wide-area networks including locations behind firewalls and NAT routers through an easy-to-use web-based user interface. Define multiple device profile configurations, push to individual or grouped devices, and schedule updates including firmware. A dashboard overview and detailed event log provide valuable information about your deployment. Easy-to-use for smaller organizations yet powerful enough to manage large cross-organizational deployments across multiple geographic locations, PMC simplifies.
Broad USB peripheral support:
The EX500 provides broad USB peripheral support with transparent redirection of USB peripheral devices for mass storage, local and network printers, scanners, smart card readers, headsets or speakers, webcams, COM ports, standard keyboards, mice, and 3D mice.
Local applications support:
LEAF OS includes select local applications that run on the device, not through a virtualization platform. Direct access to the web via Chromium Browser eliminates virtualization lag. Microsoft Teams and Zoom both benefit from direct audio/video relay eliminating common concerns of web conferencing through virtual platforms. Additional 3rd party Linux applications can be installed in LEAF OS via the custom module support to further extend its functionality. LEAF OS controls the availability of these apps and their deployment method, with a Guest Mode option for Kiosk-like use.
