The Ethernet interface to the M400 camera must support a minimum 100 Mbps communication;
the camera will not communicate at 10 Mbps. This requirement is met if using the supplied PoE+
switch. In order to provide high quality streaming digital video over the Ethernet network, the
network should have a minimum bandwidth of 100 Mbps. Video streams can be adjusted to use a
lower bandwidth, but video quality may be affected.
