LifeSize Codec
The codec is the major component of an ITV system. It compresses outgoing video,
audio, and data content. It interacts with multimedia equipment and transmits this
information to far end of a call, and decompresses incoming information. Only
tech support staff interacts with this equipment.
Network Bandwidth
Poor audio and video quality may result from insufficient bandwidth on your
network. During video calls with low bandwidth system automatically selects the
best resolution that can be achieved with the available bandwidth
