Flexibility Ensures the Best Fit in Any Environment
The NCD Explora™ 400 Series thin clients are designed to deliver increased return on an organization's existing investments in network-based resources.

The NCD Explora 450 is the best fit for heterogeneous intranets where you need fast access to Windows, UNIX, and legacy applications from a single desktop. It offers a high-performance CPU, several network connectivity options including 100BaseT, and 1280x1024 resolution support.

The NCD Explora 400 is optimized to deliver high-performance, low-cost, server-based access to Windows applications. Its simple plug-and-play installation makes it ideal for extending capabilities within terminal-oriented solution environments to include Windows-based applications. The Explora 400 also supports a number of display size and resolution options.

Both the NCD Explora 450 and the Explora 400 can be configured with either a space-saving vertical base or a monitor-supporting base.

The Power of Intranets Combined with High-Speed Windows Access
By leveraging the centralized power of network servers and distributing display processing tasks to the desktop, NCD Explora 400 Series provides high-performance intranet access while supporting the full range of Windows-based applications.

Users get all the advantages of computing resources that are centrally installed, managed, and upgraded. System and network administrators get greatly simplified network management and security. Desktop and network reliability is enhanced. The entire organization wins.

NCD Explora 400 thin client devices provide the local ICA protocol that can connect to any Citrix WinframeTM-based server. When used with NCD's WinCenterTM multi-user Windows NT server software, Explora 400 devices provide a variety of multimedia, integration, and management features that are only available on thin client solutions from NCD.

Ideal for a Wide Range of Users and Applications
NCD Explora 400 thin client devices are superior solutions for users who don't want or need to load their own applications locally. These can be call center employees, bank tellers, factory or hospital workers. Other users can include any administrative or professional employee in industries like banking, healthcare, insurance and financial services or in government or academia.

To ensure an optimal fit in any application scenario, NCD Explora 400 Series supports a variety of optional peripherals including smart card readers and floppy drives, as well as multiple keyboard and display options, including flat panel displays. They even support simple Java-based applications.

Easy to Use, Reliable, and Ready to Go!
NCD's embedded operating environment, NCDwareTM, ensures that NCD Explora 400 thin client devices are plug-and-play. Just load NCDware from the CD-ROM onto the network server and attach the NCD Explora to the network. Internet protocols such as DHCP provide automatic assignment of an IP address to the system.

Reliable by design, NCD Explora 400 systems have no integral moving parts—no fans, no hard drives, no floppy drives. In fact, the Explora 400 systems are rated at 350,000 hours of MTBF (Meantime Between, Failure).

This superlative reliability is backed up by a 3-year warranty on all base configurations. NCD’s standard three year warranty on the NCD Explora 400 Series is the longest warranty in the thin client industry and is designed to protect your investment. In addition to our standard three year warranty, NCD also offers multiple levels of Warranty Services to meet you requirements.

And the user can customize an NCD Explora 400 device by means of a simple point-and-click interface.
