AnswerNetwork bandwidth capping using registry changes on the desktops

    I posted this under Rollout but I think it falls under this thread.

    Has anyone implemented the LiveMeeting registry changes on desktops to cap the bandwidth to a specific limit? We are considering to implement this registry change to minimize network bandwidth for the enterprise but would appreciate any feedback from anyone that have tried it in terms of user experience (most especially when using video). What is the ideal limit if only using webcams, limit if using roundtable device(s).

    Thank you!

    Hi

     

    In LiveMeeting, the bandwidth requirement for data only is 56kbps or better. We recommend use DSL or Cable high speed internet access. The bandwidth requirements for voice and Video are as the table shows below:

    Bandwidth Requirements for Voice and Video

     

    Minimum1

    High-Quality

    Voice

    50 kbps

    80 kbps

    Webcam

    50 kbps

    350 kbps

    RoundTable

    100 kbps

    700 kbps

     

    Hope this helps.
