Calculating iSCSI client bandwidth

One feature of the K2 iSCSI network is its ability to load balance each iSCSI client’s connection to the K2 SAN. In order to do this, calculate the amount of bandwidth each client machine will use, using this formula:

(Video Bit Rate in Mbps x Number of Streams) / 8 (to convert to MB)

Determine the highest bit rate the encoder will use. The bit rates for the DV formats are: DV25 = 28.8 Mbps; DV50 = 57.6 Mbps; and DV100 = 115.2 Mbps for the NTSC and PAL video formats. MPEG bit rates are variable; enter the bit rate set in the application.
Multiply the highest bit rate by the number of streams that are licensed on this machine.
Divide that number by 8 to convert Mbps to MB.
Round the MB number up to the nearest integer.
Enter this number in the iSCSI Client Bandwidth Input dialog box in the K2Config application wizard.
At the conclusion of the configuration process, the K2Config application restarts the device.
