{"ai_json_enabled":true,"answer":"During the site trial, record per-camera data usage and how you\u2019re streaming or recording. Track the number of cameras, their recording schedules (continuous vs event-based), and whether you\u2019re sending substreams separately to reduce uplink. Monitor actual uplink and downlink volumes, especially during peak periods, plus any data used for audio, firmware updates and remote access. Use that data to estimate monthly consumption and to verify headroom. Run the trial long enough to capture typical variation and then adjust your SIM plan or data controls before committing. If coverage varies, test in different spots and consider failover or remote-management features that keep the system usable.","answer_source":"approved_parent_and_related_qas","category":"Security and Surveillance Connectivity","category_slug":"security-and-surveillance-connectivity","created_at":"2026-10-26T19:15:03+00:00","daily_publish_cap":2,"date_published":"2026-10-26","display_date":"2026-10-26","drip_batch":"daily_conversation_breadcrumb","drip_status":"published_topup","id":"conv-daily-20261026-f8c0e599","image_ids":["comset-category-hero-023-security-and-surveillance-connectivity","comset-product-cm580w","comset-product-cm950w"],"image_url":"","last_updated":"2026-10-26T19:15:29+00:00","local_cache_status":"pending_airtable_sync","publish_status":"published","published":true,"published_at":"2026-10-26T19:15:03+00:00","question":"What data should I measure during a site trial to size the plan?","question_intent":"conversational_followup","rss_enabled":true,"rss_pub_date":"Mon, 26 Oct 2026 19:15:03 GMT","scheduled_for":"2026-10-26T19:15:03+00:00","schema_enabled":true,"site_key":"comset-online","slug":"what-data-should-i-measure-during-a-site-trial-to-size-the-plan","source":"daily_qa_drip_conversational_followup","source_queue_id":"","source_record_ids":[],"source_type":"daily_qa_drip_conversational_followup","source_urls":[],"status":"active","tags":["conversation follow-up","daily drip"],"updated_at":"2026-10-26T19:15:29+00:00"}
