INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE NETWORK ADMINISTRATOR
The PelcoNet™ Transmission System allows live video transmission to be viewed over TCP/IP-based
networks. This section is intended to help the network administrator know what is involved with installing
this product and how it will affect the network. The person installing the product will need the following
information about the network to make the product function properly.
The Transmitter and Receiver
•A valid IP address* for each PelcoNet Transmission System unit
• Subnet mask*
• Default gateway (if applicable)
•E-mail server’s IP address (if applicable)
• Dedicated maximum allowable amount of bandwidth for live video**
*=Required for the PelcoNet Transmission System to function properly.
** = The PelcoNet Transmission System requires a continuous amount of bandwidth to display true
live video. Pelco recommends using switching hubs with the product so the amount of band-
width available to each unit is constant and reliable.
