Question
How do I optimize performance
and bandwidth?
I want to connect over the Internet.
What type of performance should I
expect?
I have a high bandwidth
environment. How can I optimize
performance?
Answer
KX III provides a variety of settings in our
remote clients for the user to optimize
bandwidth and performance. The default
settings will provide an at-the-rack level of
performance in standard LAN/WAN
environments with economical use of
bandwidth.
Optimize For. Use this setting to configure
the video engine for standard IT/computer
applications or for video/broadcast
applications.
Compression. Move the slider to the left for
the highest possible video quality and to the
right for the least amount of bandwidth.
Noise Filter. In most cases, the default
setting will work best, however you can move
to the left for more responsive video and to the
right for lower bandwidth.
Other tips to decrease bandwidth include:
 Use a solid desktop background instead of
a complex image
 Disable screensavers
 Use a lower video resolution on the target
server
 Uncheck the "Show window contents while
dragging" option in Windows
 Use simple images, themes and desktops
(e.g., Windows Classic)
It depends on the bandwidth and latency of the
Internet connection between your remote client
and the KX III. With a cable modem or high
speed DSL connection, your performance can
be very similar to a LAN/WAN connection. For
lower speed links, use the suggestions above
to improve performance.
The default settings will work well. You can
move the Connection Properties settings to the
left for increased video performance.
