Queue music or blank wave file bandwidth. Which uses more bandwidth?

[mcthompson]

What uses more bandwidth during a 60 second span?

Playing a blank wave file or playing queue music…

Call flow - Signaling

External caller -> CUBE -> CUSP -> CVP (ICM) -> VVB

Audio - RTP stream

External caller <-> VVB

Not sure what you mean. If you create a 8 second file with silence (muted audio) in whatever audio program you like in Cisco format, and then create another one with 8seconds of regular music, and they are the same size?

Good idea.  Yes, they are the same size.  I created a blank audio 60 second file and compared to the size to a 60 second music file and both of the file sizes are the same!  

So I would guess that as far as bandwidth goes they would both use the same amount.

Thanks
