Settings for codecs
The voice quality of VoIP calls is mainly determined by the codec used for the transmission and
the available bandwidth of your network connection. A "better" codec (better voice quality)
means more data needs to be transferred, i.e. it requires a network connection with a larger
bandwidth. You can change the voice quality by selecting the voice codecs your phone is to use,
and specifying the order in which the codecs are to be suggested when a VoIP connection is
established. Default settings for the codecs used are stored in your phone; one setting optimised
for low bandwidths and one for high bandwidths.
Both parties involved in a phone connection (caller/sender and recipient) must use the same
voice codec. The voice codec is negotiated between the sender and the recipient when estab-
lishing a connection.

Outstanding voice quality. The G.722 wideband voice codec works at the same bit rate
as PCMA/PCMU (64 kbit/s per voice connection) but at a higher sampling rate (16 kHz).
To enable wideband connections via G.722 you have to activate the codec explicitly on
the Telephony – VoIP page (
