# uploadSettings.maxConnectionCount Property HTML5/Flash Uploader JavaScript

Supported technologies:
 
Gets or sets the number of simultaneous HTTP connections the uploader can establish.

## Syntax
 
```
$au.imageUploaderFlash({
    uploadSettings: {
        //...other params...
        maxConnectionCount: 1,
        //...other params...
    }
})
```

```
$au.imageUploaderFlash('uploaderID').uploadSettings().maxConnectionCount(value);
value = $au.imageUploaderFlash('uploaderID').uploadSettings().maxConnectionCount();
```
 
### Property Value
 
Type: **Number**
 
The number of HTTP connections used by the uploader to send files in parallel.
 
Default value is **1**.

## Remarks
 
It is not recommended to set too many simultaneous connections (say, more than 5) as it will increase the server burden. Also, some browsers may throttle down this value.
