That's what I thought, but have not tested it to know for sure.
As a follow up, as a general design what would be better. Using the Location setting as a form of Call-Admission-Control, or use various QOS and IOS mechanisms to implement CAC on the Gateway Routers. IMO, I would rather have CAC implemented on the Routers, leaving UCM to process calls, which is why I have usually set the Audio Bandwidth setting under Locations to Unlimited.

The example is this: In a multiple remote location site company, with a Centralized UCM architecture, each site has it's own device pool, region, and location settings. All the DN's on the phones for all sites are in the same PT, meaning calls between sites are on net via their existing WAN infrastructure and not the SIP Trunk/PSTN. Remote site A is rather large 50-60 phones. Remote site B is rather small 10-15 phones. Calls between regions use g729 Calls to the PSTN using a SIP Trunk use g711 The location setting for site A is unlimited. The location setting for site B is 256 What I am wondering is this, Site B has 3 calls to the PSTN using the SIP Trunk using g711 @ 80k per call which equals 240k. The SIP trunk is also in it's own Device Pool, region, etc. Now someone from Site A calls site B, the bandwidth at Site A is unlimited so no issue there. According to the Cisco Research I've done, a call requires 2 streams. Since Site B is using 240 of 256k of bandwidth on the 3 PSTN/SIP Trunk calls, when a g729 calls comes inbound which requires 24k which causes Site B location setting to be exceeded, will the call fail or succeed ?? IMO, the call will fail.
