Network Considerations
In general, large iControl systems (with multiple Application Servers, and a moderate amount
of streaming) have the following client-to-server communication requirements:
• less than 100 ms of latency
• an available bandwidth of 1 Mbit/s (sustained)
• an available bandwidth of 5 Mbit/s (peak)
The sustained bandwidth requirement may be higher, depending on the number of streams
(see
"Allégro-1 Bandwidth Requirements" , on page 84 and "Densité Probe Bandwidth
Requirements" , on page 84).
Allégro-1 Bandwidth Requirements
The table below provides an Allégro-1’s typical bandwidth (bit rate) requirements, based on
using the MVC-3 codec:
Densité Probe Bandwidth Requirements
The tables below provide typical bandwidth (bit rate) requirements (per card) for Densité
cards capable of audio/video streaming (SCP-, ACP-, VCP- and DCP-series).
Note: iControl does not support NAT (Network Address Translation). Reverse NAT or
double-NAT techniques can be used as an alternative.
