Strata Net QSIG Over IP and IPT Bandwidth Requirements
The bandwidth requirements for Strata Net QSIG over IP is the same as those for IP telephones.
Refer to Table 9-1 on page 9-5 to estimate the quality of service (Excellent, Good, Fair, and Poor)
provided by CTX IP QSIG channels depending heavily on the LAN parameters.
When sharing voice and data on the same network segment, the data will cause some jitter in voice
communications, especially on slower segments. Table 9-11 shows calculations of the amount of
jitter assuming a worst case data packet size of 1500 bytes (Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) =
1500) based on a segment’s bandwidth. This also requires that the routers connecting the segment
through the WAN support Diffserv.
Note A router that doesn’t support Diffserv may stack multiple data packets together increasing
the jitter perhaps indefinately. And the voice quality will be indeterminate.
Class definition categories are shown in Table 9-12.
Table 9-13 shows the amount of bandwidth required for setting up and tearing down calls
independent of the amount of voice traffic.
