What level of network utilization is acceptable?
Network utilizations below 30% are suitable for IP Phones and IP PBXs. Network utilizations between 30% and 40% may result in some audio distortion; network utilizations above 40% are more likely to result in audio distortion that will be unacceptable. Network utilization is especially critical on 10 Mb networks. Due to the limited capacity of a 10 Mb network, a modest amount of additional load can put the network into an overloaded situation. On evaluating a potential site, the added network utilization resulting from the installation of the IP Phone system must be considered in evaluating the network. Use network analysis to perform this evaluation.
