Cisco switches and Avigilon

Recommended Posts

Hi

I have 40 cameras system with mix of Full HD Avigilon cameras, bullets, domes.

System has about 10 switches , connected with fiber.

Cisco SG500-28P-K9-G5 and SRW224G4P-K9-EU (SF 300-24P)

Do you change switches settings to optimise system or you generally leave it by default ?

Sometimes I see really small artefacts and wonder why is that.

 

Second thing is , why it takes few seconds to switch stream from small window to large view?

It's quite annoying... any ideas? ( all Avigilons)

Latest firmware and software, good graphic card.

Thank you for help

Mariusz

How many Cisco SF300's do you have in your network?

 

The Cisco SG500 has a capacity of 41.67mpps and a switching capacity of 72Gbps.

 

The Cisco SF300 has a capacity of only 9.52mpps and a switching capacity of only 12.8Gbps.

 

 

You will notice improvement by removing this bottleneck in your network.

Really hard to troubleshoot this without a network layout.

 

I can tell you have have much larger systems using all Cisco 500 series switches without issues and I all have 700+ camera systems with HP switches without issues.

Thanks for reply

 

Here is plan for network

Issue is, that sometimes for 1 or 2 minutes network looks like it is down, a lot of artefacts on all cameras ( live and recorded)

No idea

Couple of questions.

Your diagram doesn't show where the server connects and where or how the client connects.

Also log in to all of those switches and look at your links. That will tell you something.

What fiber are you using?

 

We had a similar issue with a customer where the fiber plant was 52/125 but one of the patch cables was 62/125. Couple of cameras on the switch worked fine but then when we added more cameras we had random network issues. Once the patch was switched to 52/125 it worked like a champ.
