Client Requirements

Following you'll find the requirements that users (both agents and customers) must meet in order to be able to use the Auvious platform.

Hardware

The Auvious Video Counselor platform supports most modern hardware. If the manufacturing company of a device still supports it, it is almost certain that it is also supported on the Auvious platform.

Exceptions and accompanying recommendations as provided below:

AndroidBuilt-in / HeadphonesFront / Back
Apple iOSBuilt-in / HeadphonesFront / Back

Network Requirements

On most networks there will be no need for any special setup, as long as the outgoing traffic to port 443 is not filtered or blocked. However it is standard practice on large corporate networks to filter/block outgoing traffic as well in order to have more control over what parts of the Internet their employees can access. For such occasions, the firewall must allow the traffic in the table that corresponds to the Auvious region that is used:

*: Optional but highly recommended, in order to avoid using tcp relay for media.

Bandwidth Requirements

Bandwidth usage is directly proportional to the number of outgoing and incoming media streams that are active simultaneously. Listed below are typical values for each type of stream.

TypeQualityBandwidth
Audio48Khz~7Kbytes/sec
Video720p/30fps~38Kbytes/sec
Screen1080p/15fps~40Kbytes/sec

To illustrate, to support ten concurrent calls with two participants sharing their microphone and camera, and one of them also sharing their screen, the bandwidth required on the infrastructure will be 10 * (2 * (7 + 38) + 40) ~= 1.3MByte/sec both upload and download a full duplex ~10.5Mbit/sec line. Each participant needs 7 + 38 + 40 ~= 85Kbyte/sec or ~ 680kbps upload and download to support simultaneous use of audio, video, and screen sharing.
