Board rooms, classrooms, and government offices have new desktop PC options from Acer America. The company’s latest Veriton models offer fast processing, essential security, and management tools, making them “ideal for powering mainstream productivity applications in professional environments,” according to a press release submitted to ChannelPro-SMB.
The Acer Veriton L4620G is an “ultra small” form factor desktop with prices starting at $599. Compatible with the Acer ErgoStand, the L4620G is designed for easy setup and integration with a range of Acer monitors.
Other new models include the Acer Veriton X4620G, a small form factor desktop and the Acer Veriton M4620G, a mini tower. Both models start with prices beginning at $619.†
All three new Veriton models come with a three-year warranty and support up to a third-generation Intel Core i7 processor, which provides significant application and graphics performance benefits compared to prior generations.
“The new Veriton desktops are designed to streamline maintenance and upgrades,” says Leila Axelle Robert, Acer’s commercial systems business manager. “The modular, tool-less chassis simplifies component swapping and supports up to three displays, enabling employees to view three monitors at once, which boosts productivity.”
Management & Security
The latest Veriton models are TPM 1.2 compliant, enabling SMBs to conform to corporate-level security requirements. In addition, the models feature the Acer Veriton ControlCenter suite of management tools, which include:
- Acer eLock Management – For deploying software and controlling user’s systems remotely.
- Acer eSettings Management – For tracking and storing user’s software preferences.
- QuickMigration – For quick update and transfer of personal data from one PC to another using a common network cable.
- SmartBoot – For automatic loading of frequently used programs in the system tray at start-up.
In addition, the new commercial desktops are outfitted with Acer Proshield Security, a single-client console application designed to integrate key security and management features under a unified user interface.† It includes an encrypted hidden drive for confidential files, a file shredder to wipe sensitive content from the system, and a BIOS import and export tool.
Acer’s One-Button Recovery function makes backing up and/or restoring a PC’s data simple.† If the PC’s operating system files are lost or damaged, the recovery process can restore the Veriton’s original factory default settings or to the last system backup.†
Connectivity & Hardware
All three Veriton 4620G Series desktop platforms (M, X, and L models) provide two DisplayPorts and a DVI port with a VGA converter. They also come with eight USB 2.0 ports and two USB 3.0 ports, while a two-port USB 3.0 module that can be inserted in the upper front media bay for charging smartphones and cameras is optional.†
The Acer Veriton L4620G uSFF PC models come with an internal drive bay supporting a half-slim 2.5- to 3.5-inch hard drive and a mini PCI-Express 2.0 slot.
The Acer Veriton X4620G SFF offers external 5.25-inch and internal 3.5-inch drive bays, PCI Express 2.0 x16, and PCI Express x1 slots.†
