Bandwidth Needs
IP Surveillance system with less than 10 IP cameras can be implemented in
100 Mbps network without having to consider bandwidth limitation.
Implementing more than 10 IP cameras using gigabit backbone connection
will provide better performance and prevent the IP surveillance system from
overwhelming the network. This is because high quality image with high
frame rate used by the IP Camera can use up to more than 2 to 3 Mbps of
network bandwidth.
