Networking/Bandwidth Load and Compression

Bandwidth, Load, and Compression

Bandwidth

• This is the data transfer rate.
• Usually measured in Mbps(Megabits per second).

Load

• A high load would be compressing H.265 since it is compressing at a harder algorithm.
• H.264b would be low load since it take less CPU power to compress it.

Compression

• Used to reduce storage in hardware.
• Video compression are usually H.264B, H.264, H.265H, and H.265.
• For more information on H.265 vs H.264, visit here.
• H.264H use more complex encoding algorithms and will produce better quality video at an equivalent transfer rate.
• Baseline profile is easier to decode, but Main and High profiles offer better compression and therefore use less bandwidth to achieve the same quality stream
