LG Business Solutions USA has introduced two new all-in-one Thin Clients, a 27-inch 16:9 model and a 34-inch 21:9 UltraWide™ model, each with full HD resolution and quad-core Intel® processors. Both models feature LG’s In-Plane Switching (IPS) screen technology, which provides high quality images with a wide viewing angle, making them ideal workstations for finance, healthcare, education, hospitality, government and other industries.

Offering high performance, enhanced data security, reliability and cloud-ready connectivity for virtually any work environment, LG Thin Clients are space-saving workhorse computers, and these two new models provide flexibility and choice for business owners to address a variety of needs for various employees, including those working remotely. Businesses can benefit from LG Thin Clients’ various connectivity options and simplified deployment needs while enabling efficient use of desk space.

Why Thin Clients

A thin client is a network-connected computing device that interfaces with the cloud, with limited storage and applications. Unlike a typical personal computer or “fat client,” thin clients provide access to information without the system-draining memory, storage and power consumption.

With thin clients, data resides safely on secure network servers, not at the individual endpoints or devices. This allows individuals to view the information they need, while IT maintains jurisdiction over sensitive information—helping reduce the risk of data breaches and giving organizations greater control over data ownership, along with decreased hardware and maintenance costs.1 It also means that the data stays secure, even if the machine or device used to access the data goes missing.

For the end users, the computing experience on a thin client can be similar or nearly identical to what they’re used to on their PCs. For today’s employees suddenly challenged with working from home, LG all-in-one Thin Clients are a plug-and-play win.

Both the 27-inch (model 27CN650N-6A) and 34-inch (model 34CN650N-6A) LG Thin Clients deliver powerful, reliable computing with an Intel® Celeron J1045 quad-core 1.5GHz processor (up to 2.5GHZ burst), integrated graphics, and a 128GB solid state hard drive. Conferencing is simple with a microphone-in port, built-in dual speakers, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, a pop-up HD webcam and an adjustable stand, while the fanless design ensures quiet operation.

To offer the most benefits to the most businesses possible, LG Thin Clients are compatible with today’s most popular VDIs including Citrix, Amazon WorkSpaces, Microsoft Azure and VMware. Each model houses two USB 2 ports, four USB 3 ports, one USB-C port, one HDMI input and one DisplayPort output, and provides 1,000:1 contrast ratio, 5ms response time and 300-nit brightness. The 27-inch model offers Full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution, while the UltraWide 34-inch model has 2560 x 1080 pixels to deliver crisp imagery across the wider panel.
