Let N denote the discrete space of all natural numbers. A space X is N-compact if it is homeomorphic with some closed subspace of a product of copies of N. In this paper, N-compact spaces are characterized as homeomorphs of inverse limit space of inverse systems of copies of subsets of N. Also, it is shown that a space X is N-compact if and only if the space (X) of all non-empty compact subsets of X with the finite topology is N-compact.
