P0911590 Issue 02 Enterprise Edge 2.0 IP Telephony Configuration Guide
For more information about silence compression and fax calls, see the Silence
compression on page 38 and the Fax calls section on page 41.
Table 2 LAN and WAN IP bandwidth usage per Enterprise Edge Gateway (loaded to 36 CCS
per port per hour) without silence compression
Example 1: LAN engineering voice calls
Consider a site with four Enterprise Edge IP telephony ports. The Preferred codec
is G.729, using a voice payload of 20 ms. Silence compression is enabled.
Given the above, what is the peak traffic in kbit/s that IP telephony will put on the
LAN?
With Table 1 LAN and WAN IP bandwidth usage per Enterprise Edge Gateway
(loaded to 36 CCS per port per hour) with silence compression on page 20, for calls
with silence compression, each port generates 34.4 kbit/s when engaged in a call to
another gateway. If all four ports are in use, then the additional load is 137.6 kbit/s.
Example 2: LAN engineering fax calls
Consider a site with four IP telephony ports. The required codec is G.711, with a
voice payload of 20 ms. Silence compression is not used.

Note 1:
LAN data rate is the effective Ethernet bandwidth use.
Note 2:
LAN kbit/s = Ethernet frame bytes*8*1000/Frame duration in ms
Note 3:
50% voice traffic reduction due to silence compression; no compression for fax.
Note 4:
Overhead of (RTP+UDP+IP) packet over voice packet is 40 bytes; overhead of
Ethernet frame over IP packet is 26 bytes.
Note 5:
Keep Ethernet bandwidth to support to support an Interframe gap of at least 12
bytes per frame. This gap is not included in the above bandwidth calculation.
Note 6:
IP telephony uses a frame duration of 20 ms for G.729 and G.711.
Note 7:
If interworking with an M1-ITG, other frame durations are supported (config-
ured on the M1-ITG).
