Optimal Definition Profiles - Cisco Telepresence MX300 Administrator's Manual

Table of contents Introduction
Optimal definition profiles
Under ideal lighting conditions the bandwidth requirements
can be substantially reduced with the optimal definitions
profiles.
Generally, we recommend the Optimal Definition set at
Normal.
If lighting conditions are good we recommend that you test
the endpoint on the various Optimal Definition settings before
deciding on a profile.
Go to Advanced Configuration on the web interface and
navigate to Video > Input > Source [1..n] > OptimalDefinition >
Profile and select the optimal definition profile.
You can set a resolution threshold below which the maximum
frame rate will be 30 fps.
Go to Advanced Configuration on the web interface and
navigate to Video > Input > Source [1..n] > OptimalDefinition >
Threshold60fps and select a threshold.
The video input quality settings must be set to Motion for the
Optimal Definition to work. With the video input quality set to
Sharpness, the endpoint will transmit the highest resolution
possible, regardless of frame rate.
Go to Advanced Configuration on the web interface and
navigate to Video > Input > Source [1..n] > Quality
video quality parameter.
You can read more about the video settings in the
Advanced settings chapter.

Normal (w448p60)
This setting is typically used in
office environments where the
environment is normal to poorly lit.
Generally, we recommend the
Optimal Definition set at Normal.
