Also note that those sizes are for the voice part of the payload only....It does not take into account any payload/packet overhead... We use G.711 quite a bit on our network, and are traffic flows are right around 80k...

Peterson" <ahp () hilander com> cc: <nanog () nanog org> Subject: RE: VoIP QOS best practices G.711 gives you the 64kbps quality you get on a channel in a PRI line. No compression is performed. G.729 is a well accepted codec that performs compression, and with ip packet overhead, uses about 16 to 24 kbps (can't remember which). It gives voice quality very close to G.711. G.723 has a noticeable voice quality change, and is in the 6 to 8 kbps range. The optimal is G.729 for quality vs bandwidth issues. There are some other considerations involved but these are the main ones. Ray Burkholder

Peterson Cc: nanog () nanog org Subject: RE: VoIP QOS best practices Speaking of codecs, what are the primary variables one uses when choosing a codec? I imagine this is some function of how much bandwidth you want to use versus how much CPU to encode the voice stream. C. -----Original Message----- From: Alec H.

T1 isway more than is necessary.I'd say that largely depends on which codec you are using and how many simultaneous calls you will have going. Alec -- Alec H.
