Implementing link aggregation
Percentage of single port GigE bandwidth ~ 84%, LAG is not required to operate
the GX1050 camera at 100 fps in Mono8.
Example 2:
GX1050C using YUV422 pixel format and outputting 100 fps
Bandwidth usage = 1024 x 1024 x 2 (2 byte for YUV422) x 100
~ 210 MBps
Percentage of single port GigE bandwidth ~ 168%, LAG is required to operate
the GX1050C at 100 fps using YUV422.
Configuring Link Aggregation
The GX camera connected to host using LAG requires two host Ethernet adapter
ports. Configure and optimize each Ethernet adapter port using steps outlined
in
Configuring Ethernet adapter
