Page 27: Maximum Video Data Rates
Maximum Video Data Rates Maximum Video Data Rates This section describes the maximum video data rate available per channel on the Profile Video File Server when all channels are in use. The maximum video data rate per channel depends on the Profile model, the type of storage, and the number of storage disk drives in the system. -
Page 28: Storage Capacity Estimates
Chapter 1 Introduction You can select the video data rate the Profile system uses to record the video signal, unless you are using DVCPRO25 codecs which operate at a fixed 25Mb/s. When selecting video data rates, be sure not to exceed the total Profile system bandwidth. Fibre channel transfers, archive operations, and high bandwidth recording or playout may require that you reduce the data rate on other channels or operate fewer channels at one time. -
Page 29: Dvcpro System Timing Considerations
