Did you get a chance to measure the total bandwidth consumed when all 1000 channels are active?<br>

Are there any minor or major voice quality problem?<br>

&gt; I currently have production box that I tested for 1000 conferencing channels.<br>

&gt; Specs are:<br>
&gt; CPU: AMD Phenom X6 Hexa Core Processor<br>
&gt; Speed: 6 Processor Cores, 2.8 GHz (Turbo 3.3 GHz)<br>
