Network Utilization:
One Remote Station will typically use 2.5% to
7% of a 10Mbit (LAN) network. It is about 2.5%
with normal operation (4 cameras displayed)
but it could peak to 7% with PTZ usage.
In Windows XP Professional, this can be
monitored via: "Ctrl-Alt-Delete,
Ö[Task Manager], ÖNetworking .
