Highly secure and flexible zero-client computing solution
Business desktop users seeking a strong balance of performance, productivity, value and longer life cycle.

No Client Device to Manage
The Dell™ FX100 Zero Client has no image to manage — literally, none. Instead, this innovative, firmware-based decompression device provides bi-directional communication with your VMware view-based virtual PCs. Once the FX100 is installed, updates to the device are similar to BIOS updates on PCs: rare events, delivered as a single replacement package and secure from tampering or changes.
| A True Personal Computer Experience | Zero PC, Near-Zero Footprint | |
We developed the Dell FX100 specifically to enable a best-in-class experience for remote users. Designed to work over industry-standard IP networks in conjunction with VMware View, the FX100 provides support for all the capabilities of a PC—including USB, motion graphics and audio. | Zero fans. Zero drivers. Zero footprint. It's the ultimate in simplicity for devices that sit at the edge of the network, side-by-side with users. With the Dell FX100, even remote users can work effectively without the need for a complex client device and its accompanying OS, specialized drivers, graphics subsystem, and other potentially disruptive features. |
Flexible Computing for a Changing World
The Dell FX100 is a key component of Dell's Flexible Computing Solution, designed for businesses that need to centralize client desktops while providing employees with the performance and flexibility of traditional PCs. Equipped with audio in/out, multiple USB and two DVI connections, the FX100 enables flexible configurations, including support for up to two digital displays.
All interfaces in the FX100 are industry standard, ensuring seamless integration with existing peripherals such as keyboard, mouse, printer and headphones. In addition, the FX100 has been optimized for use with the Dell Precision™ R5400 Rack Workstation, and it can effortlessly switch between virtual PC sessions and virtual Precision Workstation sessions.
