  • <150ms latency to *.sipvbx.com (example: us1-webrtc-11.sipvbx.com for east coast US, or us2-webrtc-02.sipvbx.com for west coast US)

  • Average latency variation < 30ms

    • High variation represents interruption to your connection. This may be a result of competing network traffic, or general hardware/network instability

    • While high latency on its own simply means delay, latency variation typically comes coupled with packet loss, which will mean dropped calls and/or choppy audio

  • >10Mb/s internet connection

    • While voice itself is a fairly light operation, we recommend having enough bandwidth to handle all your operations. This value is more of a guideline, rather than a requirement. Most importantly is making sure you’re not running out.

  • < 1% packet loss

    • Voice requires basically no packet loss. If any packets are dropped, it will interrupt the audio stream. For this reason, packet loss directly influences the quality of a call. Enough packet loss will cause dropped calls

  • < 30ms jitter

    • Jitter is the variation in delay of packets. Having high jitter will also cause poor call quality

Microphone permissions

If using the Sharpen Q phone, which is based on WebRTC, it is important to have microphone permissions setup properly on both your operating system and web browser. See the guides below for validating proper setup.
