The FastX Browser Client

FastX is the only X11 emulation solution that offers both a desktop client and a browser client. Create and display sessions running on remote Linux servers from any device with a modern browser! (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) You can display individual applications or full Linux desktops.

The browser client offers the same broad range of management tools to administrators as the desktop client.

Using the browser is safe!

FastX uses HTML5 protocol. All sessions are protected by high-level SSL encryption.

Using the browser is fast!

Performance tests have shown that FastX sessions actually run even faster in the browser than using the desktop client.

Using the browser is easy!

To begin, type the name of the server into the URL box of your browser. Typically, it will look something like this: https://FastX.Companyname.com:3300 (with 3300 being the default port FastX uses).
