Re: [Avid-L2] Medianet 5 real time streams of DNX 145 vs. Isis 5K and 7K

 

Assuming there are enough chassis to provide the required bandwidth, you are still limited by the client connection.
Single 1GbE connections runs around 85-95MB/sec on ISIS, which is why the document pointed out by Dom guarantees up to 3 streams of DNxHD145 on single connection, up to 6 on dual connection and up to 8 streams on 10GbE.
Multicam 4way at DNxHD145 requires double connection and 9way the 10GbE.

This would be 6 ish bays cutting multicam with 7 streams at the same time.  The Post super has been doing this with an Isis 7K and a 5K.  Obviously everyone isn't pulling all 7 all the time but if you are rolling the multicam clips that would be pulling the streams wouldn't it.

A lot depends on the configuration. The clients are all connected
through a switch so their individual connections are somewhat
independent. The bandwidth of the ISIS itself depends on the number of
chassis it has. The system administrator can let all the clients share
the available bandwidth more or less equally or they can assign a
dedicated bandwidth to individual clients. We frequently have 12 plus
systems working simultaneously with a mix of DNxHD145 and XDCam50 and
it's not a problem. Short bursts of 2 streams of DNxHD (un rendered
dissolves) are fine too. --J.B.
