‰

Data 0 (Best Effort, BE): Medium priority queue, medium throughput anddel ay.

Most traditional IP data is sent to this queue.

‰

Data 1 (Background, BK): Lowest priority queue, high throughput. Bulk data

that requires maximum throughput and is not time-sensitive is sent to this queue
(FTP data, for example):

‰

Data 2 (Video, VI): High priority queue, minimum delay. Time-sensitive data

such as Video and other streaming media are automatically sent to this queue.

‰

Data 3 (Voice, VO): Highest priority queue, minimum delay. Time-sensitive

data such as Voice over IP (VoIP) is automatically sent to this queue.

Packets in a higher priority queue will be transmitted before packets in a lower
priority queue.

The wait time (initially a random value within a range specified as the Minimum
Contention Window
increases exponentially up to a specified limit Maximum
