Monitoring Transmission Bandwidth and Storage Capacity Calculation
In surveillance systems, calculating the required bandwidth and storage capacity is essential to ensure smooth and efficient operations. At OHWOAI, we offer solutions to help you determine the optimal bandwidth and storage needs for your surveillance setup. Here's a step-by-step guide to calculate both:
Bandwidth Calculation:
Network Bandwidth Size = Bitrate Size × Number of Cameras
Note: Some professional sources may refer to "bitrate" as "bit rate." For our understanding, "bitrate" represents network speed, while "bit rate" refers to the size of monitoring video produced per second.
Bandwidth at Camera End: Refers to the upload bandwidth (uplink) as cameras send video information to the surveillance control room.
Bandwidth at Control Center: Refers to the download bandwidth (downlink) as the control center receives video data.
Specific Bitrate at Camera End (Varies slightly among different camera brands):
For 1080P (2 million pixels) video format, the bitrate per camera is 4 Mbps.
For 960P (1.3 million pixels) video format, the bitrate per camera is 3 Mbps.
For 720P (1 million pixels) video format, the bitrate per camera is 2 Mbps.
Bandwidth Required at Camera End (Uplink):
Using 1080P video format, a 10-camera setup requires 40 Mbps (4 Mbps × 10 cameras).
Using 960P video format, a 10-camera setup requires 30 Mbps (3 Mbps × 10 cameras).
Using 720P video format, a 10-camera setup requires 20 Mbps (2 Mbps × 10 cameras).
Bandwidth Required at Control Center (Downlink):
Using 1080P video format, a control center with 50 cameras requires 200 Mbps (4 Mbps × 50 cameras).
Using 960P video format, a control center with 50 cameras requires 150 Mbps (3 Mbps × 50 cameras).
Using 720P video format, a control center with 50 cameras requires 100 Mbps (2 Mbps × 50 cameras).
Storage Capacity Calculation:
(Note: Storage unit conversions - 1TB = 1024GB; 1GB = 1024MB; 1MB = 1024KB)
Storage Space Size = Bitrate Size (KB/s, i.e., bitrate ÷ 8) × 3600 (seconds in an hour) × 24 (hours in a day) × 30 (number of days for storage) × 50 (total number of recorded videos for monitoring points) ÷ 0.9 (10% space loss due to disk formatting).
At OHWOAI, we provide reliable storage solutions to ensure your surveillance data is securely stored and easily accessible when needed. Our expertise in bandwidth and storage calculations ensures that your surveillance system operates at its optimal performance level.
