SCCM 1610 Quick Look - Improved Remote Control Feature

One of the disadvantages of past versions of SCCM was the inability to scale back Remote Control for poor bandwidth. This led a lot of customers to adopt other programs such as Dameware, TeamViewer...etc. SCCM 1610 was packed full of great features and just so happened to include improvements to Remote Control. (See a full list of the features here.)

Here is a breakdown of the enhancements:

  1. Color Depth
    • Now you have a choice between 16 bits or 32 bits
  2. Optimize for low bandwidth connection
    • Enable this feature to provide a better remote experience over slow connections
  3. Enable Keyboard Translation

And there you have it. Just a quick glance at a feature update that should provide better Remote Control capabilities.

Happy Remote Controlling!
