thanks Reza for your answer 

and what about the uplink 1G for 20 IPTV clients also it's enough or i have risk 

(HD channel Need from 8 to 10 Mb/s)

thanks

Hi,

HD channels usually take up to 5Mbps.  So 20x5=100Mbps on the uplink. This is if all 20 clients are using IPTV at the same time and all are HD.  So, 1Gig uplink should be sufficient.

Hi,

I think, you will be fine with 1Gig uplink, even if it is 16mb 20x16=320mb

okay Reza thank you so much 

have nice day :)

The other thing I forgot to mention earlier is that with IPTV, you usually run Multicast.  So, it is one stream to many and not one to one like unicast.

So you should be fine.

Glad to help.

Thanks for the rating!
