  28. IP Considerations Items to consider when implementing IP Solutions

  29. Basics IP Cameras and ViconNet • Each camera has it’s own unique IP address and is identified in the site list as a transmitter (same as the Kollector). • Once the camera is setup, all viewing and control operations are done through the ViconNet setup. What is the maximum number of clients that can connect to an IP camera? • 1 IP camera can support viewing/recording to 5 Workstations simultaneously.

  30. Network Design Parameters Issues to consider when designing a network for an IP Video system • How many cameras can connect to a single network switch? • How many Network Switches can be cascaded and in what manner? • When and how should we use a 1000Mpbs (1Gb) switch? • How many cameras can be viewed/ recorded on a single WorkStation?

  31. Network Bandwidth IP Cams Vs. Kollector's • Using A Kollector – sends a fixed amount of fps onto the network • Example: KE240 will have max of 240 fps • So, the maximum fps/camera = 15 fps • Using A IP Video Camera – each camera can send up to 30 fps onto the network • Example: 16 IP Cameras can produce 480 fps total • Bandwidth of IP Cameras • Note: Maximum usage of network bandwidth is 70% of total (i.e. 100 Base/T network can provide about 70 Mbps for video transportation)

  32. Network Configurations • How many cameras can the network support • Assume that each camera output is 2 Mbps (2400Kbps) but the output of the switch to the Workstation will be the accumulation of all cameras. Connecting 10? 20? 50? Cameras on the network? - 10cams X 2 Mbps (2400Kbs) = ~ 23Mbps - 20cams X 2 Mbps (2400Kbs) = ~ 46Mbps - 50cams X 2 Mbps (2400Kbs) = ~ 122Mbps (More than 70 Mbps available, 70% x 100Mbps).

  33. Network Configurations • How many Network switches are needed? • For systems with high numbers of IP cameras, several switches will be required. There are two options as for how to cascade the switches: • Option 1 – connect each switch to the next one (Daisy chain). • Option 2 – connect all switches to a main central switch (star topology). • Star topology is recommended since it lowers the latency and creates a central point (this will also assist in 1000Mbps) What is best network configuration?

  34. Network Configurations When Should a 1000Mbps(1GBs) Network Switch be used? • Using a switch that has both 100Mbps and 1000Mbs (1GB) capabilities, would allow to concentrate a larger number of cameras towards the WorkStation. Example: • IP cameras are equipped with a “NIC” (Network interface card) of only 100Mbps, this provides more than enough bandwidth to operate !

  35. Network Configurations What are the critical design points in the network? • The total bandwidth on a 1000Mbps port towards the viewing station must be carefully planned so the accumulated traffic from the100Mbps switches will not exceed its 700Mbps capacity (70%). • Remember there is one stream per user ! make sure to calculate this! Bandwidth sent to the switch is doubled, if more then one WS is viewing the camera.

  36. IP Video Parameters • How do I calculate the maximum number of cameras I can connect? • First Considerations… • Software limitation – ViconNet can handle up to 99 cameras in a Macro. • Network limitation – The use of a network card that carries the bandwidth. • CPU limitation – we will assume the minimal specification of P4-1.4Ghz. • Disk writing speed limitation – normal IDE writing speed is 25 - 200MBps. • Based On those assumptions 2 bottlenecks must be considered : • Network speed for a100Mbps viewing station using 100Mbps Network Card • (70Mbps max). • Disk writing speed limitation – normal IDE writing speed is 25MBps~200Mbps. • While using 1000Mbps (1GB) Network Adapter.

  37. How Do I Calculate the bandwidth? Example: 1 WS with 100Mbps Network card. =100Mbps How many cameras I Can View/Record? Quality viewed = Q1 Full =50KBytes/sec FPS =30 Fps Calculation: 50KBytes/sec X30FPS=1.5MBytes/sec 1Byte=8Bits therefore 1.5MBytes/sec X 8 =12Mbits/sec 100Mbps(WS)*70%(Ethernet usage)=70Mbps 70Mbps/12Mbps ~ 6 cameras on a Workstation.

  38. The following Table shows the amount of cameras can be used using 100Mbps Network as a function of Quality Requested and movement in front of the cameras. The Calculations are theoretical, approved tested results will be provided later on.
