Conference Profiles

A conference profile is used to pre-define the basic parameters for conference scheduling, such as the bandwidth, encryption, and video quality. All conferences will be created on the basis of conference profiles. By saving conference profiles on the RMX 1000, users can conveniently and rapidly schedule new conferences without performing repeated configurations. The following parameters generally decide the video conference quality.

Bit Rate – The transmission rate of the audio and video streams. The higher this value is, the better the displayed video quality.

Video Protocol, Video Format, and Frame Rate – These parameters define the quality of the video picture. When an endpoint is connected to the conference, it will select a video capability based on the video parameters set for the conference. For example, if the video protocol for the conference is H.264, an endpoint that supports the H.264 protocol will select H.264 for video coding when it connects to this conference.

The following features are commonly used to define a conference:

H.239 Dual-stream – An H. 239 compliant endpoint can simultaneously send and receive two channels of conference video streams: dynamic conference video and PC screen contents.

Encryption – The system provides AES 128-based multimedia encryption to strengthen conference security.

To set a conference profile, click Conference Profiles in the RMX Management pane. The list pane shows the profiles saved on the current device and their summaries.
