Client Bandwidth Requirements
To ensure network connectivity for Sinch Contact Pro, we recommend that your network meets the following requirements:
- For voice channel use, the minimum recommended bandwidth is 120 kbits/s per call. This number contains two-way voice streams, call signalling and Sinch Contact Pro user interface traffic. Other business applications, such as CRM, will also reserve bandwidth, which you should take into account.
- Connections to Sinch Contact Pro should be stable, and latency and jitter should be kept
low.
- Latency should be 150ms or less as higher value than 150ms will affect call quality.
- Jitter should be below 30ms as anything higher than 30ms will affect call quality.
- VOIP/RTP traffic should be prioritized in the customer network. Gold traffic class is recommended.
- Bypass proxy and VPN to avoid extra loop for RTP traffic
For agents using only email or chat, less bandwidth is required as the channels are not real time.
