Minimize VoIP problems with careful planning and good network design

Explore the issues surrounding Voice over IP (VoIP). Some of these, such as compression/decompression of the speech frame and propagation relay, are inherent to VoIP; there may be little one can do to minimize these effects on VoIP networks. However, with careful planning and solid network design, you can control and possibly avoid many problematic issues such as jitter, overall latency, handling delay, sampling rates, tandem encodings, and dial-plan design. Discover how in this sample chapter from Voice over IP Fundamentals, 2nd Edition.
