When user-mode screen capture is selected, the amount of bandwidth used to capture and transmit the Host desktop to the Account User(s) can be restricted or "throttled" by configuring and applying a user-mode screen capture profile. The default profile is "High Quality/High Bandwidth" but other profiles corresponding to smaller bandwidth limits are available. See Host Operation > Screen > Bandwidth Throttling section of the PROXY Pro Host Guide for more information about configuring user-mode screen capture profile properties.
