Introduction to TCX Flash Redirection
The Dell Wyse TCX Suite is a single software solution that provides full benefits of cloud client-computing without the
limitations of competing software suites. The TCX Flash Redirection is one of the components of TCX Suite that enables
the cloud client users to experience improved Flash video content performance in a remote computing environment.
TCX Flash Redirection uses the client CPU to decode and render flash. TCX Flash Redirection uses the Adobe flash player
plug-in that supports the NPAPI interface on the client. TCX Flash Redirection is supported over RDP and PCoIP protocols. TCX
Flash Redirection uses less Server CPU cycles.
For more information about the TCX Flash Redirection feature and supported environment, refer to the latest Dell Wyse TCX
Administrator’s Guide.
