Video Switching uses fewer system resources than CP: only one CIF video resource per 
participant for any resolution (including HD). Table 2-1 lists the resources available to 
VSW conferences by line rate and card type.

* 

Capacity numbers are for maximum capacity card assemblies. These numbers may be lower 

when LPR and/or encryption are enabled.

Table 2-2 lists the recommended number of connections at HD1080p resolution for fully 
configured and licenced RealPresence Collaboration Server (RMX) systems with MPMx 

cards. For detailed resource capacity information see the relevant RMX Hardware 
Guide.

and 180 participants with the MPMx card.
