Hello Friends,

i have a campus network with 2 core Cat6500 and multiple 4500 series distribution switches plus 2960 series access switches,

we have deployed IPTV system in the network but currently 50 TVs are working through sattelite stream from streaming server Cisco's DCM 9900.

we are planning to add more  300 TVs in the network and i am wondering that when all of them will be deployed then what will happen for switches cpu utilizations when all the Tvs will be running on the same time with different different channels. any suggestion will be very appreciated?

Thanks

Hi,

I have a 6500 core and 6500 distribution and hundreds of security camera using 2-4 Mbps each. Other then forcing me to upgrade a few network links from 1 to 10GbE, no effect, the cpu are under 20%.

The 4500 (sup6 or 7) can replicate 245 Mpps in hardware.
