How Appia Video Communication Works

Appia Video Communication is based on the H.264 codec — the most efficient way to encode and decode video available today.

We built our implementation of H.264 from the ground up, to enable it to provide quality communication even over the open Internet. Our ActiveFrame™ technology minimizes the impact that latency, jitter and packet loss can have on video and audio quality.

Appia Video Communication is a hosted service — we supply the audio and video conferencing bridges for you, so you can connect quickly from wherever you are. Once you log in, you are connected to a session, managed by your host, with only a few mouse clicks.
