The Concorde¥4500 functions as a multiplexer by using some of the
channel transmission bandwidth to carry the control port
information from one videoconferencing system to another. When
data is being transmitted, less bandwidth is available for video and
audio transmission. For this reason, ßow control should be used
whenever possible.
Since the Concorde¥4500 operates at channel bandwidths of 56 to
768 kbps, there are limitations on the aggregate data port
bandwidth.
Table 3-4 lists the recommended bandwidth limitations for the
channel and the control ports.
