It's worth double checking, it caught me by surprise when I heard that. The PVDM3's are good because you don't need to drop $100k on a MCU to get started. There's also Callway and others are hosted services that partners offer that you can pay-as-you-need or pay-as-you-use.<br>

<div><br></div><div>If you have extra DSPs this is where you can use a heterogeneous conference and throttle down your remote users with locations bandwidth (lower the video kbps) and allow your users local to the CFB to use higher resolutions.

<div><br></div><div>So you can get away with a homogeneous conference profile if that's all you're going to have. If you want to support some people in the conference at higher rates you'd want to go with the homogeneous setup. The doc explains the limits / benefits of each.</div>
