I've got ~150 down but only ~20 up and my Nextcloud instance regularly
falls over under network load.
Or RocketChat?

Mattermost?
https://docs.mattermost.com/deployment/video-and-audio-calling.html
Ages since I've played those.

TBH I'd still go with Jitsi Meet (https://meet.jit.si/); at least it's not
Zoom, Skype or something.
