Bandwidth Consumption 

 

The preconfigured network speed selection simply results in a different Compression and Color 

Depth  configuration  in  order  to  match  the  different  bandwidth  limitations  of  the  network  type 

(UMTS, ISDN, etc.)  

 

The  following  suggested  network  bandwidth  planning  table  for  IP-KVM  installation  is  from  the 

test results with 3D-Labyrinth screen saver at Resolution 800x600, the worst case consuming 

the highest network bandwidth.
