Server Gain Setting

from 1 to 6. The sound will be turned off if the audio gain is set to
Mute
.
Bit Rate
Selectable audio transmission bit rate include 16 kbps (G.726), 24 kbps (G.726), 32 kbps (G.726),
40 kbps (G.726), µLAW (G.711) and ALAW (G.711). Both µLAW and ALAW signify 64 kbps, but in
different compression formats. A higher bit rate enables higher audio quality, but requires higher
bandwidth.
