NETWORKING EQUIPMENT AND CONFIGURATION
Choosing a Network Switch
You can use an unmanaged 10/100/1000Mb switch on smaller systems up to a high-end, fully managed gigabit
switch on larger systems. If you configure your network to use multicast mode, a switch that offers “IGMP
Snooping with Query” should be used. This will filter out superfluous IP traffic (i.e., sends only the desired stream
to the corresponding port so the network isn’t flooded with unwanted packets).
Three levels of network switch integration - Each level requires additional setup but improves the performance
of the VIP-1 system and other devices on the local network:
• Small systems: Unmanaged 10/100/1000 switch can be used (up to 6 VIP-1’s set to unicast mode).
• Medium Systems: Managed gigabit switch with IGMP snooping with query.
• Large Systems: Fully managed gigabit switch with IGMP snooping with query and vLAN configured for Miravue
VIP-1 traffic.
Network Bandwidth
Each video stream occupies 15Mbps on the wire. The total bandwidth required depends on the number of video
sources and the video source transmit mode being used (i.e., either unicast or multicast).
Video Distribution over WiFi
Video distribution via wireless Ethernet should utilize a separate wireless network using the 5GHz frequency
and wired to the same network. Also, due to bandwidth requirements, limit the number of VIP-1’s to one or two
set to Unicast transmit mode.
NOTE: Wireless communication is configured via the VIP-1 web interface.
Network Switch Configuration – Dell N2048P
The configuration menus and labeling depend on the make/model of the switch. These should only be used as
a general example of the setup of IGMP with Query. The setup options are highlighted in yellow.
