Bosch Hybrid Failover Solution
The following equipment and software is required for this solution:
●
A dedicated ISP for failover.
●
The Cisco Stream Manager Administration and Monitoring with Failover Module.
●
A Bosch matrix switch with available output ports.
●
RS-232 console cable to connect from the matrix switch to the failover ISP. This cable
carries instructions for the matrix switch to redirect video streams to the failover ISP. This
cable may be purchased directly from Bosch or built by using the pinouts that are shown in
Table 9.

By default, the 16 input ports of the LTC 8200 are configured as Camera 1 through Camera 16.
These ports numbers must match the camera number or peripheral ID of the encoder port on the
ISP. In an environment with more than 16 cameras or with camera numbers that are greater than
