Reducing the colour depth of the image data to be transmitted
In the default settings, the KVM extender transmits the image information with a
maximum colour depth of 24 bit to the user module.
Using a high resolution and displaying moving images can result in the user module
“skipping” several images.
In such cases, reduce the colour depth of the image data to 18 bits. This way the
data volume to be transmitted can be reduced.
