Jack PC, as it is known, is a thin client device that is literally the size of a network wall port, meaning there's no longer a need to have a personal computer on your desk at all. Your monitor, keyboard & mouse simply plug straight into the wall-mounted unit. It is the latest in the ever-growing range of thin clients which are rapidly replacing PCs as a more effective desktop computing solution for modern businesses. Jack PC operates in an SBC (Server Based Computing) environment.

The Jack PC thin client computers are connected at the back side through Ethernet cables to the building's LAN and receive Power over Ethernet (or 802.3af) through the existing enterprise infrastructure.

Jack PC, being the world's lowest power desktop, consumes 5W at full work mode.
