Cisco introduced two devices with new virtual desktop virtualization software more efficiently and the terminals used in video conferencing more affordable. Both the new small desktop will support VMware View 4.5 and Citrix XenDesktop, scheduled to be released in March, 2011. Each costs under $ 500, including a USB keyboard, mouse and copyright applications workstation. In addition, Cisco also said tablet Cius was introduced earlier will also support VMware View, Receiver Citrix, Wyse virtualization software Pocket Cloud, and will interact with desktop computers running Windows in the center data. Cius tablet will be sold in March, 2011.

Desktop virtualization and Compact workstations (thin client) has been used in recent years, helping to control IT facilities and data more secure by focusing functionality and data and computing applications in data center server, rather than allowing users to do this with desktop or mobile device. Cisco officials said, more and more people using video and video conference in business cooperation, so firms need to provide virtualization products under a new virtualization architecture called VXI (Virtualization Infrastructure Experience, roughly translated as infrastructure virtualization experience), can store data and applications efficiently and with greater efficiency in the data center servers, which can link virtual machine and connect to mobile devices.

According to Mr Barry O'Sullivan, senior vice president in charge of Cisco's voice technology, voice and video are not working well when running in virtual environments in data centers. VXI structure, this issue is resolved. One device is a new virtual desktop "box" high-VXC 2200, less than 5 "(12.7 cm), can leave the phone next to a table and display the dialogue. VXC 2200 has 4 USB ports and two video ports. A smaller device is VXC 2100, it is possible to compact the Cisco IP phone and is set to use the monitor and keyboard with traditional desktop computer. This device can connect to 2 monitors and 4 USB ports.
