Robert, Yes it is an accurate spec, but remember that EACH connection would take the additional BW. If you expect a lot of connections you could keep it down by using an external server at a location where BW is abundant and only connecting the repeater server to that external server. The repeater server could be unlisted so no one would know about it and you could advertise the external server like it was the repeater. A single G726 connection would go unnoticed on anything but the slowest Internet connections today. Maybe if he is running the slowest DSL and there is a lot of other traffic it might be an impact but probably not otherwise. Between BBB's, and to PC's if installed on any Acid release, you can run the ilbc codec which is darn near indistinguishable from G726 with about 1/3 the BW. 73 Doug WA3DSP http://www.crompton.com/hamradio Date: Tue, 11 Nov 2014 10:41:20 -0500 From: N1XBM@amsat.org To: app_rpt-users@ohnosec.org Subject: [App_rpt-users] Bandwidth usage I am talking with a site owner about connecting a repeater currently at his site to the allstar network. He is on board with the idea but asked how much bandwidth will be needed. I found this website. Is this still an accurate measurement of my needs? http://docs.allstarlink.org/drupal/node/145 _______________________________________________ App_rpt-users mailing list App_rpt-users@ohnosec.org http://ohnosec.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt-users To unsubscribe from this list please visit http://ohnosec.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt-users and scroll down to the bottom of the page.
