Will out of order packets impact a PCoIP session?
PCoIP will work when packets are becoming out of order between the two PCoIP endpoints. Re-ordering packets on PCoIP endpoints requires that packets are held in a queue/buffer while waiting to receive the packets that need to be put back into order.  With …
How does PCoIP share bandwidth over the network?
The BW Limit is dynamically calculated and represents the bandwidth the PCoIP session estimates to be available given the network conditions. The calculation takes into account the existing bandwidth usage, packet loss and any high latency spikes. The …
What are the priorities for video, audio, and USB PCoIP traffic?
PCoIP technology gives priority to USB and audio, while imaging uses remaining available bandwidth. PCoIP technology optimizes user experience for a given bandwidth by adaptively controlling quality and update rate of the image data, and optionally …
How does PCoIP handle networks with high traffic volumes?
When you plan to use PCoIP on network with high volumes of other traffic that may cause congestion, it is recommended that QoS is implemented to give PCoIP guaranteed bandwidth. PCoIP will adjust to use it's fair share of the network but UDP is typically …
What is Intelligent Packet Re-Transmission in PCoIP Protocol?
PCoIP Protocol uses UDP protocol similar to other real-time protocols (voice-over-IP, interactive video conferencing etc).  This is done to minimize the overhead associated with TCP protocol.  However, reliable transmission of data is important for remote …
Is there any bandwidth consumed when a PCoIP device is idle?
The idle bandwidth depends on the PCoIP host type. Below are the idle bandwidths for different host types: HP Anyware 2.12 and newer, the idle bandwidth consumed is 1-2 kbps. VMware View 4.5 (using PCoIP Software 3.5) and earlier, the idle bandwidth …
What happens when a PCoIP Packet is lost in transit?
When a PCoIP packet is lost or considered lost, the PCoIP protocol makes an intelligent decision on if the packet should be re-transmitted. PCoIP packets containing audio and sometimes imaging may never be re-transmitted as the next sample of audio or new …
