Intel Expands Intel Core Ultra to Enterprise AI PCs with New vPro Platform
Intel announced plans to expand AI PC adoption to enterprise customers through the new Intel vPro® platform at Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2024.
Enhanced capabilities of Intel® Core™ Ultra processors with Intel® Arc™ GPU and 14th Gen Intel® Core™ processors bring new PC experiences to enterprises, small and medium-sized businesses, education and public sectors, and the edge.
This year, the company will offer a broad enterprise portfolio of more than 100 notebook, 2-in-1, desktop and entry-level workstation designs from partners including Acer, ASUS, Dell, Dynabook, Fujitsu, HP, Lenovo, LG, Microsoft Surface, NEC, Panasonic, Samsung and VAIO.
The new Intel Core Ultra processors deliver ultimate performance, improved power efficiency, and built-in Intel Arc GPU. With dedicated AI acceleration distributed across the central processing unit (CPU), graphics processing unit (GPU), and new neural processing unit (NPU), Intel Core Ultra-based business PCs support the apps you use every day and deliver endless new AI experiences.
The Intel vPro platform takes full advantage of the latest processors and platform technologies to increase productivity for all users. Significant benefits are expected, with office application productivity up to 47% higher compared to a 3-year-old PC.
Additionally, the enhanced Intel® Threat Detection Technology (Intel® TDT) is designed to improve anomaly detection efficiency and reduce power by leveraging the new NPU. The new Intel® Silicon Security Engine helps authenticate system firmware to block cyber threats at layers below the operating system (OS).
Intel® Device Discovery is a new way for cloud-based tools to get the information they need to take action on a specific PC. The new Intel® Device Health, a collaboration with VMware and Eclypsium, helps IT organizations gain visibility into system patch requirements and implement comprehensive device management. Intel continues to invest in hardware-based remote management for both on-premises solutions leveraging endpoint management technologies and cloud-native solutions such as VMware Workspace ONE.
Intel’s Stable IT Program aims to help IT organizations deploy with confidence once they’ve verified.4 For a smooth OS transition, Intel vPro verifies and ensures compatibility with Windows 10 and Windows 11. Intel's robust developer program helped deliver 99.7% application compatibility on Windows 11.
Another benefit of the Intel vPro platform is sustainability across the entire PC product life cycle. Currently, 94% of Intel vPro devices are EPEAT Silver or higher,5 and a single use of Intel vPro’s remote repair capability can reduce carbon emissions by the same amount as two years of PC usage, compared to sending a technician to a car.
