VIA Connected Client Platforms
With its comprehensive portfolio of silicon, VIA offers a complete platform solution for connected clients that boasts industry leading low power consumption, rich integration, wireless connectivity and the world's most comprehensive native x86 security to enable partners to create innovative ultra-compact and secure solutions for enterprise.
Performance Processors
 Available with either the VIA Eden or the VIA C7 processor, VIA Connected Client platforms help reduce the total cost of ownership for client devices in the enterprise by over sixteen times when compared to traditional commercial desktop systems, and enable cool running fanless designs that lower the level of ambient noise in the workplace. Manufactured using IBM's advanced 90nm process, VIA processors have an average power consumption of just 1 watt, considerably lowering the amount of heat produced, which in turn helps prevent premature failure of components and significantly reduces cooling infrastructure requirements. Scalable from 400MHz-2GHz with advanced architecture including the ultra-efficient VIA V4 bus, VIA Connected Client Platforms provide powerful solutions to ensure smooth client device performance.
Leading Security
 Integrated into VIA Eden and VIA C7 processors is the military-grade VIA PadLock Security Engine. Designed to give developers a comprehensive set of security primitives to strengthen and accelerate the processes involved with protection of data stored and exchanged, the VIA PadLock Security Engine enables connected clients based on the VIA Connected Client platform to offer enterprise an unparalleled level of protection.
Rich Digital Media
 Using the latest VIA CX700 and VIA CN700 digital media chipsets, VIA Connected Client Platforms offer the Hi-Def™ experience with the integrated UniChrome™ Pro IGP graphics engine, hardware MPEG-2 acceleration and dual monitor support to improve employee productivity. VIA Connected Client Platforms also improve the quality of device based communication such as VoIP and video conferencing through its integration of rich multi-channel audio.
Full Software Compatibility
VIA also produces a comprehensive range of solid and stable drivers for both Microsoft® Windows® and Linux to accelerate the development process of services based management software. All VIA Connected Client Platforms are also 100% compatible with Linux and Microsoft® Windows® XP, XPe, embedded CE and are Microsoft® Vista® ready.
