bandwidth requirements for Outlook

I am trying to determine bandwidth requirements for Outlook connecting to a
centralized exchange server on a Frame Relay WAN. I will be utilizing the
shared calendar functionality of exchange. Can someone point me in the right
direction?

Thanks,

The application Microsoft Office Outlook has no bandwidth
requirements. Only the person waiting for messages to come
and go has the requirements. It will work on the slowest
dial up Internet connnection.

Chuck,

I am trying to determine how much bandwidth Outlook will use when connected
to a centralized Exhcnage via Frame Relay network. Since I am using the
calendar function, I need to determine how ofetn the outlook/exhange sends a
keep-alive and when it does how mauch bandwidth it requires. I am looking at
a DS0 (56K) connection with a 16K CIR. So ultimately, I need to know how
many people this configuration will support. I know the bandwidth
requiremtns for my other applications just not exchage and outlook. Any
thoughts?

If there is little activity, there should be no problem. If
hundreds are continually updating calendars each hour,
probably! It's really a matter of usage.
