In addition to capturing images from multiple video sources with a single Zebra Rapixo CoF board, you can also simultaneously capture images from video sources attached to multiple Zebra Rapixo CoF boards.
Be aware that the number of video sources from which you can simultaneously capture images is limited by the PCIe chipset on your computer.
A high performance PCIe chipset might be necessary to sustain PCIe transfers to Host memory. Ideally, you should use at least a PCIe 3.x chipset. Using the correct PCIe chipset will optimize the speed of data transmission and will minimize data loss.
To measure the effective available bandwidth of the PCIe slot in your computer with the Zebra Rapixo CoF board, you can use the Zebra Rapixo CoF Bench tool, accessible using the AILConfig utility. As a reference point, capturing from a 2K x 2K, 8-bit, 60 frames/sec video source will require a minimum bandwidth of 240 Mbytes/sec, plus an additional bandwidth margin of approximately 20%, for a bandwidth of 288 Mbytes/sec.
