[asterisk-users] Conferencing Hardware
We plan to use asterisk for conferencing. As I understand, it requires either a separate hardware like x100p clone or ztdummy. What are the pro cons of x100p vs ztdummy. Any other hardware suggestions for conferencing? It should be able to handle few simultaneous conferences.

Go for it. ztdummy is not an issue. I have used ztdummy with 220 simultaneous participants in 18 different conference groups. At one time, I had 60 machines running simultaneously in a FARM all of which were carrying the same 18 conference groups with over 200 participants active on each machine. ..mike..
