    GCT delivers two different Transport Layers (TL) in the installer. You can decide between the s2i TL and the Kithara TL. For a real-time application with high frame rates, it is recommended to use the Kitahra TL. Furthermore, it is recommended to set up your system with the s2i TL and if necessary activate the Kitahra TL later on.
    With this installation, you can also connect a CXP camera with GCT
