IGEL Technology, one of the leading manufacturers of Linux- and Windows- based thin clients worldwide, is introducing a new Clever Client generation. The user-friendly Windows XPe is now available for the Compact- and Winestra-Series in addition to the Premium line.

The IGEL Smart-Series - the small IGEL for large tasks

With a maximum power consumption of 20 watts, the inexpensive IGEL Smart is the "Entry Level IGEL" among the range and functions exceedingly well in all system environments. The Smart model IGEL-1100 Legacy is IGEL Technology's inexpensive alternative to ASCII terminal environments and can thus provide investment protection in the Legacy environment. In addition, the IGEL-1100 has the capability of easy and inexpensive integration into existing Linux or Unix environments. The IGEL Smart is also offered as a 2100-LX and 2100-CE model on a Linux or Windows CE platform and is the ideal solution for those small and mid-sized companies that would like to phase out their old PC client architecture step by step.

IGEL Compact - an inexpensive thin client access solution with Windows XPe

The IGEL Compact is available with a Linux-based operating system (IGEL-3200 LX Compact), with Windows CE 5.0 (IGEL-3200 CE Compact), as well as Windows XPe. With the IGEL-3600 XP Compact, IGEL is making the well-known and flexible operating system available at a lower price point.

The new centerpiece of the IGEL Compact-Series is the VIA Eden CPU with 533 Mhz, which delivers efficient system performance. Three USB 2.0 ports, two PS/2 ports, one intergrated SmartCard reader and two serial and one parallel interfaces are included with the standard equipment. A special emphasis in the design of the RAM and Compact Flash memory was put on securing the investments for later updates and expansions. The standard equipment of all 3200 models includes 128 MB RAM (256 MB in all 3600 models) and has the option of being upgraded to 1024 MB. The Compact Flash memory size is 128 MB for the 3200 series and 256 MB for the 3600 series and can also be upgraded to 1 GB.
