5 · Network requirements
The sensor camera sends uncompressed video to the tracking workstation over the network. This connection needs:
-
Direct connection: Connect the camera and workstation directly (link-local, point-to-point). The video must not pass through a router into another network, such as your office network.
-
Jumbo frames (MTU 9000+): Set the MTU to at least 9000 bytes. Jumbo frames send larger data packets, which video needs for high bandwidth and low latency.
-
Support on every device: Every device in between, such as switches, fiber media converters or link-local router ports, must support jumbo frames. Otherwise video packets are split up or lost.
