Bandwidth for RDP

[Steve Perry]

Hi there.

Does anybody have an approximate figure for bandwidth used
by a Remote Desktop Connection onto a server? We wish to
connect to Windows 2000 Servers and I have been asked to
put an estimate together.

Many thanks,

Steve

Calculate with a rough average of 20-25 kbps per connection. This can
become much more if your users do heavy printing or use a graphics
intensive program.

Thanks for your reply!

I presume it is 20 kbits/sec and not kbytes?
Regards,

Steve

Yes, that's correct.
