Stopping Large File Downloads from Ruining Voice Calls

Nothing sounds more unprofessional than robotic, choppy voice audio or dropped sales calls during a major client pitch. When someone in the office downloads a large Windows update or cloud video file, un-prioritized voice packets get buffered. Configuring Quality of Service (QoS) with Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP EF 46) tagging reserves dedicated jitter-free bandwidth for voice packets regardless of background traffic.
