How can I enable “Miracast over Infrastructure” for non-Surface Hub Windows 10 PCs?

I was very excited to discover an article explaining how I can now use Miracast over a Windows LAN. The technology is called Miracast over Infrastructure. For those unaware, Miracast is the protocol used by the Windows 10 "Project to a second screen" and "Projecting to this PC" functionality.
Only laptops (over wireless, with specific hardware), have had access to this feature up until now which is obviously quite frustrating when this functionality would be very useful over the LAN with regular workstations.
The problem is the article only seems to discuss this functionality in the context of the Surface Hub.
My questions:
- Is the Surface Hub running some custom software for this?
- Can that software be installed on a regular Windows 10, version 1703 PC ?
- What services need to be running to support Miracast over Infrastructure?

Miracast over Infrastructure is available on regular PCs with Windows 10, version 1703. Windows 10 PC can act as a Miracast Source (Transmitter) as well as a Miracast Sink (Receiver). The following article describes how to enable Miracast Sink mode on a Windows PC (http://winsupersite.com/windows-10/use-windows-10-anniversary-s-connect-app-cast-your-smartphone-screen-your-pc). For the Miracast stream to go over infrastructure network (as opposed to a Wi-Fi Direct network), the Source and the Sink must be on the same network and the Sink should be resolvable over DNS or mDNS. This article further describes Miracast over Infrastructure (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/surface-hub/miracast-over-infrastructure)
