Local
ISP Service for Small Groups (for up to 50 viewers): The
VSS system needs an ISP (Internet Service Provider) for serving
and storing the video & audio on the web. . . You can use your own ISP, rather than than the optional ISP that we
recommend.
(Bandwidth usage is typically about 300k per viewer over the internet .
. . and it can be up to 2 MB per minute per person depending on the
encoding. For typical video streaming at 300K bandwidth usage, 8 hours
of streaming is 1 GB approx).
