Description
This enables you to set Cascade Mode as either Resource Optimized or Video
Optimized.
• Resource Optimized
System resource usage is optimized by allowing high resolution connections
only at high line rates and may result in lower video resolutions for some line
rates. This option allows you to save MCU resources and increase the
number of participant connections.
• Video Quality Optimized
Video is optimized through higher resolution connections at lower line rates
increasing the resource usage at lower line rates. This may decrease the
number of participant connections.
