System Requirements for Thin Clients

You can install Horizon Client on certain thin clients.

The thin client on which you install Horizon Client, and the external input devices it uses, must meet certain system requirements. For information about the vendors and models for these client devices, see the Omnissa Tech Zone.

  • External input devices

    Horizon Client generally works with any external input device, including keyboards and controllers, that works with the thin client. For information about the devices that a specific thin client supports, see the documentation from the device manufacturer.

  • Horizon Client requirements

    Activate the Thin Client mode setting in Horizon Client. See Configure Horizon Client in Thin Client Mode.

    • For information on features that are different or unavailable when you use Horizon Client in thin client mode, see Using Horizon Client on a Thin Client.

    • For information on how client devices, including thin clients, work in Horizon 8, see Client Devices.
