Manufacturing
Endpoint computing at manufacturing and warehousing facilities often has the challenge of harsh environments. Standard PCs with moving parts can easily be damaged as a result of dust and chemicals in the air. Many businesses have helped solve this expensive problem by installing Pro|Edge thin clients. Pro|Edge has no moving parts that can be damaged by harsh environments. End users have found that thin clients not only stay in service longer than PCs, but are also more economical to operate.
Why Manufacturing & Warehousing SitesUse Pro|Edge Thin Clients
• Pro|Edge thin clients provide reliability and longevity because there are no moving components like hard drives, processor fans and power supply fans.
• Pro|Edge consumes only 1/16th the electricity of a PC, resulting in dramatic energy savings.
• Security is greatly improved when installing Pro|Edge thin clients. USB mass storage devices can be disabled preventing theft of sensity information. In addition, users cannot introduce unwanted data, applications or viruses.
• Configuration is made simple by remotely pushing out settings with I-O’s free configuration software.
Why Legacy System Customers Rely on I-O Products
I-O’s printer interfaces, display stations and remote controllers are valuable connectivity devices for connection to IBM System i and System z servers. For manufacturing environments, the compatibility, ease of use and reliability of I-O products ensures that little or no down time occurs. To users, this allows them to handle their mission critical, yet day-to-day functions effectively and economically.
