IX5000 to IX5000 Video Call Quality Issue

Scott Hanson

Has anyone seen a situation where IX5000 to IX5000 calls have poor video quality even though QoS is present?  IX5000 to any other unit works perfectly.

Also, during a packet capture, Wireshark was saying these packets were Skype packets.  Is that normal or could the conversation between these 2 be using Skype for Business somehow.

Thanks,

You mention that QoS is present - but do you have enough bandwidth? An IX to IX will essentially be three calls, so it will be using roughly three times the bandwidth of an IX to an MX800 for example. QOS will not solve a lack of bandwidth problem. 

Try using a lower call rate - see if that helps. 

Wireshark is incorrectly identifying those packets, the IX does not use Skype type of traffic. I don't know if that's normal for Wireshark or not.

hi

I have the same issue and there is not problem with the bandwith or network . Did your solve this problem or still is present?

 

Thank you

Hi,

 

This issue is mostly due to network issues.
Please check if you have prioritise the video traffic with proper QOS markings.
Also you need to check the jitter values that should not be more than 60ms.
You can also try disabling the H265, you can do it from CUCM IX phone page as well. Or you can do it from CLI with below command-

set video h265 { enable | disable 

You can also refer the below link for mare details regarding bandwidth and QOS requirement-
