Jitter Buffer Settings

When voice signals are packetized and transmitted, individual packets can take different paths through the network and arrive at the destination at varied timings. This is referred to as "jitter", and it can cause degradation in speech quality. To compensate for jitter problems, the "jitter buffer" accumulates the packets temporarily for processing.

The parameters below are used to adjust the size of the jitter buffer. However, in general, there is no need to change the default values.
