		Voice Quality Metrics

		MOS LQK		Score that is an objective estimate of the mean opinion score (MOS) for
				listening quality (LQK) that rates from 5 (excellent) to 1 (bad). This score is
				based on audible concealment events due to frame loss in the preceding
				8-second interval of the voice stream. For more information, see the
				“Monitoring the Voice Quality of Calls” section on page 8-15.
				Note The MOS LQK score can vary based on the type of codec that the
				Cisco Unified IP Phone uses.

		Avg MOS LQK		Average MOS LQK score observed for the entire voice stream.

		Min MOS LQK		Lowest MOS LQK score observed from start of the voice stream.
