Important WAN Considerations

Administrators should consider bandwidth availability and usage among
sites. If the bandwidth is insufficient, it may degrade voice quality. In this
case, the SuperQ may not be usable.

If many calls will be placed over the wide area network (WAN),
administrators should also ensure the WAN is reliable. If the WAN is not
reliable, administrators should take the following steps:

1. Enable the option Dispatch calls to local workgroup first if local

agent(s) available (under SuperQ Manager/Call Distribution).

2. For each server, set Maximum In-use IP Channels to a smaller value.

In SuperQ, administrators can configure a maximum of IP trunks. The
WAN bandwidth requirement can be calculated using the following
formula:

Maximum IP trunks x G.723/G.729 bandwidth usage x 1.5 = bandwidth
requirement

If G.723/G.729 usage is around 25 Kbps, G.711 is not recommended (~80
Kbps), unless 2Mbs+ bandwidth is available among sites.
