<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>How's the stability of the CMM now? I remember when
it first came out there were some 'warnings' out there. We purchased the 6608
blades and are quite happy with them. They might be better priced than the 6608
for conferencing resources, but I remember when I costed them for analog ports,
compared to VG248, they were quite a bit more. Anyways, just my two
cents.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=965582814-11112005>For
what it is worth, I am going through a VERY similar issue right now. If
you have a 6500 series chassis laying around, the CMM card with ACT
daughtercards will give you the best bang for the buck in transcoding
resources. The 6608 is $25K and only yeilds 32 conference
participants. The CMM with 1 ACT (it can support up to four) costs $18K
and will support upto 128 conference participants. Another drag on the
6608 cards is that your switch must be running CatOS. The CMM supports
CatOS or IOS.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

default confernce resource that ships with CallManager is hosted in the IP
Voice Media Stream App process on the CallManager server. This
resource only supports the g711 codec. If you wish to host g729
members in conference you must provide g729 conference resource or
transcoders. There are IOS versions of both available for smaller
scale deployments and modules like the CMM and 6608 for large
deployments.<BR><BR>/Wes<BR><BR>IT wrote:

is related to the Codecs for calling between regions. When I set all the
