Dell announced a new, redesigned mobile thin client portfolio for those who need to be on the move, but also require critical intellectual property (IP) and data to be protected – even against zero-day, advanced persistent threats. Ideal for a range of industries including finance, healthcare, government, manufacturing, and energy and exploration industries, the new thin clients enable organizations to empower their mobile workforce to securely access cloud applications and data remotely, while ensuring the security, manageability and centralized control provided by a virtual desktop environment. The Dell Latitude E7270 and Latitude 3460 mobile thin clients integrate the expert manageability, performance and security of Wyse thin clients, based on 20 years of innovation in VDI, with the enterprise-class heritage of Dell’s award-winning Latitude portfolio to deliver a superior user experience.
Power and Portability
The two new mobile thin clients leverage the thoughtful design and user experience of the Latitude portfolio with a durable, enterprise-class chassis designed to meet the demands of today’s mobile worker. Based on Windows Embedded Standard 7 64-bit for a familiar local Windows experience, the devices power the most demanding use cases from all-day computing to graphics-intensive applications. They are built with a robust feature set including Intel dual core processors with integrated graphics, 8GB RAM[i], 128GB SSD[ii], and an extended battery life to enable full productivity in a variety of settings throughout the day. Both mobile thin clients offer a wide range of connectivity options and ports including USB 3.0, HDMI, gigabit Ethernet, and WLAN and Bluetooth options.
With the Latitude E7270 and Latitude 3460 mobile thin clients, organizations benefit from the broadest portfolio of peripherals for mobile thin clients, including popular Dell docking stations, keyboard and mice options, and monitors for maximum productivity and workplace flexibility.
Steve Lalla, vice president, Commercial Client Software and Solutions, Dell Inc, “At Dell, we have the ability to take our years of expertise as the leaders in VDI, and layer in the design and heritage of our Latitude PCs that are used by millions of people every day, to deliver mobile thin clients that combine the best of both worlds for the benefit of our customers. When you add our services, security and relationships with leading broker providers, we provide the end-to-end value that our customers are looking for from a technology partner today.”
Peter Han, vice president, Worldwide OEM Marketing, Microsoft Corp. said, “In today’s workplace, companies of all sizes need technology that allows their employees to be mobile and flexible, as well as collaborative and productive, while keeping their data secure. With Windows-based mobile thin clients such as Dell’s new devices, employees can enjoy a familiar computing experience with the flexibility they crave and the security and control that IT requires.”
