Codec selection and bandwidth planning

Verified 2026-09-24 · 51 sources · tier 1–2

Codec selection and packetization parameters directly dictate the per-call payload and network overhead on voice transport 1. Voice platforms across industry profiles apply different combinations of standardized codecs, packet headers, and bandwidth allocations 10​45​28.

Standard Codecs and RTP Profiles

Under the RTP/AVP profile defined in RFC 3551, G.711 mu-law (PCMU) has static payload type 0, and G.711 A-law (PCMA) has static payload type 8, both using an 8000 Hz clock rate and 1 channel 10. The profile defines PCMU and PCMA as carrying 8 bits per sample after logarithmic scaling 9. ITU-T G.711, titled "Pulse code modulation (PCM) of voice frequencies", dates from 11/1988; Appendix I (09/1999) defines a packet loss concealment algorithm, and Appendix II (02/2000) specifies a comfort noise payload 15. RFC 3551 states that the default audio packetization interval SHOULD be 20 ms or 1 frame, whichever is longer 8. Comfort noise (CN) carries static RTP payload type 13 with an 8000 Hz clock rate in the RTP/AVP profile 7.

ITU-T G.722 is titled "7 kHz audio-coding within 64 kbit/s", with an in-force edition of 09/2012 and Amendment 1 of 10/2014 16. G.722 has static RTP payload type 9 in the RTP/AVP profile 11. While G.722 audio samples at 16,000 Hz, its RTP clock rate is 8,000 Hz because RFC 1890 assigned that value in error, and it is preserved for backward compatibility 12.

ITU-T G.729 is titled "Coding of speech at 8 kbit/s using conjugate-structure algebraic-code-excited linear prediction (CS-ACELP)", with an in-force edition of 06/2012 17. G.729 carries static RTP payload type 18, operates at 8 kbit/s, and uses 10-octet frames for each 10 ms interval 14. A G.729 RTP packet may carry 0 or more G.729 frames followed by 0 or 1 G.729 Annex B silence-compression frame 13.

RFC 6716 defines the Opus audio codec, supporting bitrates from 6 kbit/s to 510 kbit/s 19. Opus encodes frame sizes of 2.5, 5, 10, 20, 40, or 60 ms and can bundle frames into packets reaching up to 120 ms 20. Opus includes 5 audio bandwidths corresponding to effective sample rates: narrowband (8 kHz), medium-band (12 kHz), wideband (16 kHz), super-wideband (24 kHz), and fullband (48 kHz) 18. It provides 3 operational modes: SILK-only for low-bitrate speech, Hybrid (SILK plus CELT) for medium-bitrate speech, and CELT-only for music and low-delay operations 27. The reference source code in Appendix A serves as the primary normative section of RFC 6716, and only the decoder portion is normative 21.

Under RFC 7874, WebRTC endpoints must implement both Opus (per RFC 7587) and G.711 PCMA/PCMU, and Opus decoders must support all Opus modes 36. RFC 7874 recommends offering Opus before PCMA/PCMU if an endpoint is capable of processing audio above 8 kHz 37. WebRTC endpoints must also support RFC 3389 comfort noise for G.711 and other codecs lacking integrated CN, while using RFC 3389 CN with Opus is NOT RECOMMENDED 35.

Bandwidth Calculation and Protocol Overhead

Cisco computes total packet size by summing the Layer 2 header, the IP/UDP/RTP header, and the voice payload 1. Packets per second (PPS) is calculated by dividing the codec bit rate by the voice payload size, and per-call bandwidth equals total packet size multiplied by PPS 1. In Cisco's calculation model, IP/UDP/RTP headers contribute 40 bytes (20 IP + 8 UDP + 12 RTP), standard Ethernet Layer 2 adds 18 bytes including FCS, and compressed RTP (cRTP) reduces the header to 2 or 4 bytes 5. Cisco notes that voice activity detection (VAD) can reduce bandwidth by up to 35 percent when averaged across more than 24 calls over time 6.

Codec Packetization / Payload Ethernet Bandwidth
G.711 (64 kbps) 20 ms (160 bytes, 50 PPS) 2 87.2 kbps per direction 2
G.722 (64 kbps) 20 ms (50 PPS) 3 87.2 kbps 3
G.729 (8 kbps) 20 ms (20 bytes, 50 PPS) 4 31.2 kbps per direction 4

Cloud Calling and Platform Implementations

Cisco Webex Calling positions Opus as its optimised codec for most client call flows, using G.711 as its universal codec 44. Analog telephone adapters (ATAs) and DECT phones on Webex Calling do not support Opus 40. Webex Calling uses G.711 for PSTN calls because most PSTN providers do not support Opus 46. Webex Calling mandates that every INVITE include G.711 so calls stay compatible across call flows, and it does not support calls that offer only G.729 42​43. In terms of bandwidth planning, Cisco states that each codec uses 70-80 kbps per audio stream on Webex Calling, recommending an allocation of 100 kbps per audio stream and 200 kbps for an internal enterprise call involving 2 audio streams 38​45. For QoS, Cisco's Webex Calling port reference marks Webex App audio with DSCP Expedited Forwarding (46), video with AF41 (34) and SIP signalling with CS0 (0) 41.

Webex Contact Center supports only G.711 u-law and G.711 A-law on its voice media path 48. Media entering Webex Contact Center using other codecs (including G.729, iLBC or Opus) must be transcoded before reaching Webex Contact Center media edge locations 49. WebRTC connections to Webex Contact Center require a minimum network bandwidth of 100 kbps per call 50.

Microsoft Teams defines audio bandwidth for both 1-to-1 calls and meetings as 10/10 kbps minimum, 58/58 kbps recommended, and 76/76 kbps for best performance (up/down per endpoint) 28. Teams prioritises audio quality over video quality when available bandwidth is insufficient 29. The Teams bandwidth figures apply per endpoint, meaning a single user joined on both a computer and a mobile device counts as 2 endpoints 30. Administrators can evaluate network requirements for Teams and cloud voice across physical locations via the Network Planner in the Teams admin center 33. For Direct Routing SBC interfaces, Teams supports SILK, G.711, G.722, G.729, and non-bypass AMR-WB 31. Microsoft recommends allocating at least 2 media ports per concurrent call on a Direct Routing SBC 32.

Zoom Phone uses Opus between Zoom endpoints, with Zoom putting its consumption at about 60-100 kbps per call as Opus adapts to available bandwidth 51.

  • Webex Contact Center voice channel and PSTN options — Inbound edge as recorded in the corpus: webex-cc-voice-channels is constrained-by this topic. Webex Contact Center accepts only G.711 u-law/A-law and requires any other codec to be transcoded before its media edge; so per-call bandwidth on that leg is the G.711 figure (see claims bandwidth-codec-planning-wxcc-g711-only and bandwidth-codec-planning-wxcc-fixed-bw-inference).
