[cisco-voip] Transcoding question

[Daniel Pagan]

Hey Ryan how’s it going? Transcoder allocated by CUCM comes from the side using a higher bandwidth codec, regardless if it’s the calling or called party, with the intention to avoid streaming a high bandwidth consuming codec over a WAN connection – keeping it local to the LAN. Of course, this isn’t always true, such as due to a local transcoding resource being entirely nonexistent or a misconfiguration of the MRG/MRGLs.

Hope this helps answer your question.

When xcoding is required in the call setup, which side is transcoded? The called party or the calling party?

Thanks
