Louisiana sites would probably be happy to throw in quite a bit of video into a venue for a scalability test at a predetermined time.<BR>
<BR>
We’ve the bandwidth here in Louisiana, and I’ve recently moved some of my local sites to a high priority vlan established by our local networking group. I’d love to stress test it. :-)<BR>

There is only the practical limitation of the number of streams your network can handle, your machine can decode, and your display can accommodate. We've had successful meetings with over 30 video streams.<BR>
<BR>
Anyone for an interactive scalability test?<BR>
