H.264 High Profile Support in Video Switching Conferences
Beginning with Version 7.6, the H.264 High Profile video protocol is supported in Video Switching (VSW)
conferences.
Guidelines
● H.264 High Profile is supported in VSW conferences in H.323 and SIP networking environments only
● For H.264 High Profile-enabled VSW conferences, all endpoints connecting to the conference must
support High Profile and connect to the VSW conference at the exact line rate and exact resolution
defined for the conference. Endpoints that do not meet these requirements are connected as
Secondary (audio only).
● For H.264 Base Profile VSW conferences, both High Profile and Base Profile supporting endpoints
connect using the H.264 Base Profile.
Endpoints that do not support the exact conference line rate are disconnected.
Endpoints that do not support the exact video settings such as protocol and resolution defined for
the conference will be connected as Secondary (audio only).
Minimum Threshold Line Rate System Flags
The following table lists the System Flags that control the minimum line rate threshold for the various
resolutions available for High Profile-enabled VSW conferences.
These system flags must be manually added to the Setup menu > System Configuration before you can
update their values. For more information see the Modifying System Flags.
