NEW DELHI: IT solutions company HCL Infosystems on Wednesday launched a personal computer for the BPO and ITes sector.
Aimed at reducing infrastructure cost for the fast-growing BPO and ITes sector, the computer has been priced in the range of Rs 30,000-Rs 45,000, HCL Marketing Executive Vice President George Paul said.
The HCL BPO PC would enable the operation of one PC in two securely-isolated work environments without loss of any data, he said.
It provides a hardware firewall between PC units and integrates them into one which brings down the infrastructure cost for the company, he said, adding that adequate data security measures have been embedded in the system.
He said the computer would be distributed through HCL's 170 sales offices and through channel partners.
