Microsoft prepares more changes in Teams: the application will adapt to the capacity of the network to which we are connected

A month ago we saw how Microsoft was preparing a way for Teams whereby the application had a less gluttonous consumption of bandwidth in video calls, a kind of economic way. An option that will not come alone. since it also has announced changes to reduce data consumption"

With the rise of video calls, whether for leisure or work, networks and network connections have been put to the test thanks to the pandemic. That is why companies, like Microsoft now, work to optimize the operation of the tools and applications that they launch on the market.

Adapt to network

Along with the reduced data mode for Microsoft Teams that allows users to limit the amount of data used during Teams video calls, now comes another mode that enables change of operation depending on network availability

With this new feature unveiled in the company's roadmap, administrators will be able to set changes to bandwidth policies based on location geographic location of Teams users.

In this way the connection adapts if a person is in an environment (country, region, city...) in which the connection to the network has a tighter or limited bandwidth, while when there is a higher bandwidth capacity, the connection would recover its full potential.

In this sense, the first step will be taken with two possible configurations of the meeting policy in Microsoft Teams depending on the capacity of the network. On the one hand, a call AllowIPVideo, which may or may not restrict video calls in favor of audio calls. and next to the first one, another call MediaBitRateKb, which would limit the quality of calls in cases of weak connections.

This improvement along with others that are being prepared related to support for the creation of meeting rooms before the meeting or improvements in the management, classification and assignment of participants, must coming to the Teams desktop app and web version later this year.
