Cstation L-Series provides centralize and secure your PCs while delivering full PC functionality to end-users as far away as 2600 feet from the desktop with a L-Series Cstation.
The smallest form factor and lowest priced Cstation is the L-series. The L-series is the ideal platform for many environments that do not require additional peripherals beyond USB and PS/2 devices, such as office automation, public kiosks and call centers.

The solid-state Cstation appliances are located at each user's desk, while their PCs are relocated to a remote central location. Cstations are connected to a C-link PCI add-in card installed in the remote PC, via copper or fiber cabling. This maintains the critical one-to-one relationship between a user and their assigned PC, preserving the PC experience for each user. The user's keyboard, monitor and mouse are plugged into the Cstation that also includes USB, audio, as well as serial and parallel device connectivity using the PCI slot. A video card in the local Cstation provides true DVI support, and video quality superior to any other extension product on the market. Plus, the open architecture solution allows users to decide the computer type and graphics card desired.
The Cstation L-Series appliance and C-Link add-in card function as a standard PCI bridge connecting the Cstation to the remote centralized PC. Cabling is used for transport of the C-Link protocol, a point-to-point protocol with a peak transfer rate of 250 MB/s aggregate bandwidth (125 MB/s full duplex) between a C-Link interface card and a Cstation. The L1000 and L1100 contain a multifunction system board combining the C-Link protocol logic, PCI Bridge, I/O controllers, audio, USB, PS/2, and video (optional).
