Question Answer
How much bandwidth does
KX II use for common
tasks?
Bandwidth primarily depends on the user’s task and actions. The more
the server’s video screen changes, the more bandwidth is utilized.
The table below summarizes some standard use cases at
Dominion KX II’s default and with two reduced bandwidth settings
(connection speed setting of 1Mb with 15- and 8-bit color) on a Windows
XP target server (1024 x 768 resolution) over a 100 Mb/s LAN:

With the reduced bandwidth settings, bandwidth is reduced significantly
for virtually all tasks. With the 15-bit color setting, perceived
performance is similar to the default parameters. Further bandwidth
reductions are possible with additional changes in the settings.
Please note that these bandwidth figures are only examples and may
vary from those seen in your environment due to many factors.
