Visuality Systems presents CIFS NQ, a version of the Common Internet File System  protocol designed for embedded devices. CIFS NQ is a middleware component that allows embedded devices to easily share files with Windows PC�s, other embedded devices, and Unix computers. The CIFS protocol is a vital part of any network that includes Windows computers. Now  embedded devices can take advantage of the same native file sharing protocol built into all Microsoft Windows operating systems.
