4 Getting the best experience for the end users The service is designed to work through all sorts of network and endpoint deficiencies and still deliver quality audio and video. However, we ve discovered a few things you can do to help ensure you get the best possible experience. Here are some tips we think you ll find helpful: > Use a wired network connection when possible and disable wireless (Wi-Fi b, g, n). > Use recommended audio/video devices to prevent echo and other audio/video issues. > Plug each device (camera, microphone, etc.) directly into one of your computer s USB ports when-ever possible rather than a USB hub (whether it s one you added to your computer or it s built into your flat panel monitor or your laptop s docking station). > If you re using a laptop, avoid running on battery it reduces performance and video quality. > If your computer has a Power Plan (all Windows and Mac laptops do), choose High Performance. > Make sure you have the latest drivers (like the latest DirectX video driver, if you re a Windows user) for the devices you use during the videoconference, such as your camera, microphone etc. Technologies and Architecture ArkadinVideo is based on Vidyo Technology. The infrastructure includes redundant VidyoRouter deployed in a cloud model. Each end user connects to its regional infrastructure and the regional infrastructure are connected between each other to cascade the videoconference (cf. architecture picture)

5 Bandwidth Requirements The minimum requirement is 300 Kbps upload and download per end user. Video Resolution HD 1080p (1920 x 1080) HD 720p (1280 x 720) SD (640 x 360) CIF (320 x 180) Audio Recommanded Bandwidth ~ 2 Mbps ~ 1 Mbps ~ 600 Kbps ~ 150 Kbps ~ 70 Kbps Average figures in Kbit per second Network Access & Proxy Specific firewall ports have to be opened for connecting to our Videoconference service. Please review the list of ports provided below. (NW: means that the entire network in the netmask must be opened).

7 TCP and port 443 If you can only use TCP for Internet connectivity or you do not want to open all the required UDP ports, you must use VidyoProxy: Right click on the Vidyo icon in your windows toolbar and select configuration Select Network Tab Select «Always use VidyoProxy» Save Web-Proxy If all of your internet streams are going through a web-proxy, this must be specified within VidyoDesktop: Right click on the Vidyo icon in your windows toolbar and select configuration Select Network Tab Select «Try connecting through web-proxy» and define it manually, or completely define it Save
