In a VDI (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure) deployment, desktops and applications run in the data center or the cloud. The endpoint on the desk only has to connect users to their session reliably and securely, and be easy to manage at scale. ChipPC designs thin clients for Citrix, Azure Virtual Desktop/RDP and Omnissa Horizon, running ThinX OS or Windows 11 IoT, with central fleet management.
It boots into a locked, lightweight OS, opens the user’s remote session, displays it and redirects keyboard, mouse, audio and peripherals. Applications and data stay in the central environment, so updates, access policies and backups are handled once, centrally.

ThinX OS is ChipPC’s locked Linux thin-client OS for Citrix, RDP/AVD and Horizon sessions, managed with Xcalibur Global. Windows 11 IoT fits when users need local Windows applications; it is managed with XcaliburW. By operating system →
Xcalibur Global is a browser-based console to configure, monitor and support ThinX OS endpoints. XcaliburW covers Windows endpoints.
With PC to TC, compatible x86/x64 PCs (at least 2 GB RAM and 16 GB storage) can run ThinX OS and join the same Xcalibur Global fleet.
A compact endpoint that connects users to virtual desktops or apps hosted centrally (Citrix, AVD/RDP, Omnissa Horizon) instead of running them locally.
Citrix, Microsoft RDP/Azure Virtual Desktop and Omnissa Horizon.
ThinX OS for VDI/RDP-only desks; Windows 11 IoT if local Windows apps or policies are needed.
Yes, compatible x86/x64 PCs can be converted with PC to TC and ThinX OS.
With Xcalibur Global for ThinX OS devices, or XcaliburW for Windows devices.
