How many BG130 can be connected to 1PC(1LAN card)? [GigE camera] (No.316)
In case of 8bit, 2 can be connected.
The bandwidth is 1280x960x8bitx30fps=294.9Mbps in case of 8bit. On the other hand, the effective bandwidth of GigE is better to be below 700Mbps in normal case. (Because other information than image, such as header, is added.)
Based on the above, 700Mbps/294.9Mbps=2.37, so max. 2 cameras can be connected.
