In today’s work environments there are many reasons why it’s advantageous to physically separate or extend the user from the PC/Server. Separation may be used to enhance physical and data security, to remove PCs from harsh or sensitive environments, or to restrict access areas. Increasingly, IT managers ask if the workplace is the optimal location for the reliable operation, management and maintenance of the PC/server.
Many industrial workplaces are hazardous with dust, corrosive liquids and gases, extreme temperatures, vibration, etc. that are detrimental to the reliable and continuous operation of the PC. Other environments have restricted personal access such as operating theatres, laboratories, libraries, data centres, classified areas and more.
