Note
: The network bandwidth necessary to send the encoded audio is typically 5~10% higher than the bit rate due to pack-
etization overhead. For example, a two-way G.722 audio call at 64 Kbps consumes about 135 Kbps of network bandwidth.
The Opus codec supports various audio bandwidths, defined as follows:
Abbreviation
Audio Bandwidth
Sample Rate (Effective)
NB (narrowband)
4 kHz
8 kHz
MB (medium-band)
6 kHz
12 kHz
WB (wideband)
8 kHz
16 kHz
SWB (super-wideband)
12 kHz
24 kHz
FB (fullband)
20 kHz
48 kHz
Note
: The T40P/T40G/T23P/T23G/T21(P) E2/T19(P) E2 phones support using WB for Opus encoding, and using NB, MB,
WB, SWB and FB for Opus decoding.
The T57W/T54W/T53W/T53/T48U/T48S/T46U/T46S/T43U/T42U/T42S/T41S/T27G phones support using WB
(default) or NB for Opus encoding, and using NB, MB, WB, SWB and FB for Opus decoding.
The CP920 phones support using anyone from NB to WB for opus encoding, and using NB, MB, WB, SWB and FB
for opus decoding.
The phones support up to two calls or a three-way conference when using Opus.
