  Description     : a WebRTC compatible Selective Forwarding Unit that allows for multiuser video communication

Jitsi Videobridge is a WebRTC compatible Selective Forwarding Unit (SFU) that allows for multiuser video communication. Unlike expensive dedicated hardware videobridges, Jitsi Videobridge does not mix the video channels into a composite video stream. It only relays the received video flows to all call participants. Therefore, while it does need to run on a server with good network bandwidth, CPU horsepower is not critical for performance.
