kbps
Kilobits per second (kbps) is the standard unit to measure bitrate, measuring the throughput of data
communication between two devices. Since this counts the number of individual bits (ones or zeros), you
must divide by eight to calculate the number of KB (kilobytes) per second.
LDAP
LDAP is a widespread standard database format which stores network users. The format is hierarchical,
where nodes are often represented as branch location > department > sub-department, or executives >
managers > staff members. The database standard is employed by most user directories including
Microsoft Active Directory, IBM Sametime and others. H.350 is an extension to the LDAP standard for
the videoconferencing industry.

Lecture Mode

Scopia Desktop's lecture mode allows the participant defined as the lecturer to see all the participants,
while they see only the lecturer. All participants are muted except the lecturer, unless a participant asks
permission to speak and is unmuted by the lecturer. This mode is tailored for distance learning, but you
can also use it for other purposes like when an executive addresses employees during company-wide
gatherings.
Load balancer
A load balancer groups together a set (or cluster) of servers to give them a single IP address, known as
a virtual IP address. It distributes client service requests amongst a group of servers. It distributes loads
according to different criteria such as bandwidth, CPU usage, or cyclic (round robin). Load balancers are
also known as application delivery controllers (ADC).
Location
A location is a physical space (building) or a network (subnet) where video devices can share a single
set of addresses. A distributed deployment places these components in different locations, often
connected via a VPN.
