For example, in a conference defined with a line rate of 768 Kbps, a
participant with a line rate of 128 Kbps connects as Secondary (audio only)
Participants attempting to connect at rates below the set minimum threshold
are connected as Secondary in order to maintain the video quality of the
conference. Table 7-1 lists the required minimum line rates that participants
may use to connect to a Conference On Port.

Conference On Port setting is suitable for large Continuous Presence
conferences (up to 128 participants for a single video card) for which you do
