The Pano System also offers significant green savings on a number of fronts, helping you conserve both the Earth and your capital and operating budgets.
The Pano Device uses less than 5 watts, or roughly 3 percent of what a even an EnergyStar certified desktop PC consumes – reducing both direct electricity costs and air conditioning costs to remove generated heat. In fact the Pano Device when in full use consumes less electrivcity than many PCs do when turned off due to the electricity they continuously consume to be ready to respond to a press of a power button.
Designed by Whipsaw, one of the world's leading industrial design firms, the clean and functional design of the Pano Device also provides a smaller packaging footprint, resulting in savings on shipping, storage and waste disposal. We've even recently redesigned our packaging to minimize the amount of non-recycable materials used.
And because of the simple design of the Pano Device and its lack of moving parts that wear out or even firmware needing upgrades, its lifecycle can be far longer than a traditional PC, resulting in greatly lengthened desktop refresh cycles and compounded capital expense and maintenance savings for organizations. A Pano Device that lasts for 10 years can potentially keep two or even three desktop PCs out of landfills, letting you invest those funds in your core infrastructure.
Finally as operating systems and applications grow and demand more computing resources, the necessary hardware upgrades can be made to the centralized servers shared among all virtual desktop users, and not out on every desktop where utilization is often at 10% or less over the life of a PC. This saves both on hardware captital expenditures and also on the electrical power and cooling needed for this largely unused PC hardware.
