The T alkSwitch 48-CV A is a hybrid PSTN/V oIP phone system. The addition of V oIP to the T alkSwitch product line adds the ability to use a broadband IP connection for voice calls.
The G.726 (32Kbps) CODEC is a better quality solution compared to the G.729 CODEC. It does, however , require more bandwidth per call. A G.726 call will typically require 50Kbps bandwidth upstream and 50Kbps bandwidth downstream for each call. The G.711 CODEC provides the best voice quality .
