<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>We are using an Asterisk box to do conferencing right now. I
have had about sixteen active lines in conference and the quality was
acceptable. We now have a need for 50 people to conference at one time. Does
anyone have enough experience doing this to give me some pointers. Will it even
be reasonable to try this? Is the mixing done on the the hardware, I plan on
using a quad span t-1 card from Digium? The server is a fedora box with a dual
core xeon at 2.0 Ghz and 2 gigs of Ram. Is there a rule of thumb to go by as
far as conferencing resources?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
