4.3 PC Data Bus Issues

If you are connecting multiple cameras to your host PC, either through direct peer-to-peer
connections or through network switches, you must be aware of the data bus type used in the PC.
The PCI bus typical of older PCs is theoretically capable of handling 132 MByte/s of data. But in
practice, the capacity of the PCI bus is lower and the bus bandwidth is shared by the network
adapter and many other devices installed in the PC. To ensure adequate bandwidth on the PC's
data bus, use of a PC with a PCI express data bus is recommended.
