IP Video: What matters? Bandwidth!

Written by Matt Golueke | Mar 20, 2014 8:19:00 PM

When researching or deploying an IP video solution, it's easy to overlook a key component . . .

BANDWIDTH 

While end users are demanding the highest resolution for their system, now reaching the 4K Ultra HD level, the increase in network bandwidth continues to rise.  

So, if bandwidth is so important, how do you keep it in check?  

First, start with a smart camera.  One with technology built inside that reduces bandwidth as much as 50%. Content Based Imaging Technology (CBIT) reduces bit rates and still delivers crisp, detailed images.

So, why does this matter so much?

 

Bandwidth = Storage = Cost  
 
 
Lower Bandwidth = Less Storage = Lower Cost = Successful Project
