True PC Experience requires Purpose Built Silicon Hardware-based
PC-over-IP Technology

PC-over-IP chipset From its inception, Teradici has been focused on solving the challenges associated with enterprise desktop consolidation. As such, Teradici has taken a unique approach resulting in a ground up development of a purpose built ASIC chipset dedicated to desktop consolidation.

Core to this chipset is technology called PC-over-IP® technology to span the user's desktop from the data center over standard IP networks with a full and uncompromised experience. In the process of developing PC-over-IP technology, it was clear that delivering a true experience required hardware acceleration to achieve:

System Requirement Hardware Acceleration Benefit
Extremely low latency processing for computationally intensive display compression and USB/HD audio bridging functions
  • Ensures system responsiveness, while maintaining full graphics and media performance to deliver a true PC experience
Flexible display compression and propagation techniques combined with rapid network adaptation capability
  • Minimize network footprint and work across standard IP networks
  • Seamlessly and quickly adapt to changes in available network resources, while avoiding short term degradation of the user experience
Driver-less operation on host PC or desktop portal
  • Enables seamless integration into existing enterprise environments while minimizing IT management
  • Reduces OS images to manage and simplifies host OS
Fully transparent USB bridging
  • To ensure peripheral interoperability and minimize IT support
Zero loading on PC CPU
  • Eliminate impact of software-based solutions on CPU resources that affect application performance
  • Minimize system cost and power by efficient use of CPU resources.
