Schem<strong>at</strong>ic of SUN Ray Enterprise System<br />

Hundreds of schools, colleges, universities, and libraries around the world are<br />
deploying Sun Ray <strong>technology</strong>. It is particularly well suited for cost-sensitive<br />
environments such as call centers, educ<strong>at</strong>ion, healthcare, service providers, and finance.<br />
Verizon wireless has replaced thousands of call center PCs with Sun Microsystems’ thin<br />
client terminals. With about 5,000 Sun Ray terminals installed <strong>at</strong> three Western call<br />
centers, and a fourth in progress, Verizon has seen a 60% <strong>to</strong> 70% drop in desk<strong>to</strong>p<br />
problems and a 30% decline in electrical use <strong>at</strong> each center. The carrier plans <strong>to</strong> keep<br />
rolling out Sun Rays in new and existing call centers. SUN Microsystems has partnered<br />
with General Dynamics (formerly Tadpole), N<strong>at</strong>uretech, and Accutech <strong>to</strong> manufacture<br />
lap<strong>to</strong>ps which can serve as SUN Ray II mobile work st<strong>at</strong>ions using smart cards.<br />
