NCS Technologies Cirrus LT, the computer industry's first mobile zero client laptop, is now available in Australia and New Zealand. Cirrus LT has a 14-inch screen, 6-cell battery, and available docking station, integrated smart card reader and Wi-Fi. Cirrus LT uses the PCoIP protocol to ensure superior computing performance. Cirrus LT is distributed in Australia and New Zealand by Impact Systems Technology. For more information, please visit www.ncst.com.

Thin client and zero client end users access office applications virtually – email, word processing, spreadsheets and presentations – that are hosted in data centers. Zero client PCs are differentiated by having no operating system, no local storage and don't retain persistent user data. Antivirus protection is not necessary. IT departments that implement zero clients improve management, reduce maintenance and administrative complexity and realize a lower total cost of ownership.

Cirrus LT uses the Teradici PCoIP^® protocol to ensure superior computing performance. PCoIP compresses, encrypts and encodes the computing experience at the data center and transmits only pixels across the network to the end user. PC users have secure, fully functional access to all applications. Cirrus LT takes advantage of the strongest security protocols, AES-256 cryptography and NSA Suite B ciphers.

Engineered for a highly efficient administrative experience, Cirrus LT works with VMware Horizon View and Amazon WorkSpaces cloud services. The laptop supports copper, fiber and Wi-Fi connectivity.

Cirrus LT is distributed in Australia and New Zealand by Impact Systems Technology Pty Ltd., one of the leading OEM/ODM PC providers and distributors in the two countries. Cirrus LT launched in the U.S. in 2014 and is focused on government, finance and healthcare – and wherever users demand security, mobility and efficiency. Cirrus LT is also distributed in Europe.

NCS is the world leader in delivering mobile PCoIP devices. In addition, NCS offers an end-to-end portfolio of Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) solutions. NCS also manufactures commercial-off-the-shelf computers, high-end workstations, ruggedized PCs and servers, and custom-built high-performance servers.
