Chipset is integrated with processor

INTEL® CORE™ I5 WITH VPRO/CORE I7 WITH VPRO TECHNOLOGY CAPABLE

Intel® Core™ i5 with vPro™, Core™ i7 with vPro™ technology is a selectable feature that is available on units configured with
select processors, a qualified Intel® WLAN module and a preinstalled Windows® operating system. It provides advances in
remote manageability, security, energy efficient performance, and wireless connectivity. Intel® Active Management
Technology (iAMT) offers built-in manageability and proactive security for networked mobile workstations, even when they
are powered off* or when the operating system is inoperable. It can help identify threats before they reach the network,
isolate infected systems, and update regardless of their power state.

1

Requires a Windows operating system, network hardware and software, connection with a power source, and a direct (non­VPN) corporate network connection which is either cable or wireless LAN.

2

Some functionality of Intel® Core™ i5 with vPro™/Core™ i7 with vPro™ technology, such as Intel® Active Management
technology and Intel® Virtualization technology, requires additional third- party software in order to run. Availability of
future "virtual appliances" applications for Intel® Core™ i5 with vPro™/Core i7 with vPro™ technology is dependent on third­party software providers. Compatibility with future "virtual appliances" is yet to be determined.
