How much bandwidth does TeamSpeak require?
Especially the time and the mostly unknown factor how many people will speak at the same time for how long makes is nearly impossible to give a detailed result of how much bandwidth and traffic is required. Basics: • Each person speaking sends one voice stream to the server • The server decides based on who’s in the same channel to whom the stream has to be sent. • If 12 persons in the same channel speak at the same time, the server receives 12 voice streams and sends 12 voice streams to every one in the same channel. • The server does not mix the voice streams. • The server sends a heartbeat packet (66 Bytes) to each client each second which answers with a packet (62 Bytes).The bandwidth and traffic requirement is depending on: • The amount of channels and users • Selected codec in the channels • People speaking at the same time in same/different channel • The server’s uptimeThis FAQ can only show you how you can calculate the bandwidth/traffic requirement for your server as only you
