When VoIP (Voice over IP) technology is used in call centers, one of the biggest problems that directly affects call quality can be jitter delay. In VoIP calls, voice is transmitted to the other party in small data packets. However, when the network connection is unstable or there are delays, these packets arrive irregularly and the voice quality deteriorates.
So, what exactly is jitter delay, what causes it and how can it be prevented? What techniques can you use to improve the quality of your call center’s voice transmission? We will also take a detailed look at how the UC-Gadgets platform can optimize call quality by analyzing CMR jitter data.
What is Jitter Delay and What Causes It?
Jitter is the irregularity or delay in VoIP calls caused by voice packets arriving at different times. Jitter problems can cause audio stuttering, distortion, echoing, or unintelligible speech.
What Causes Jitter?
🔹 Low Bandwidth: Insufficient internet speed or no dedicated bandwidth for VoIP calls makes it difficult to deliver voice packets on time.
🔹 Network Traffic Congestion: When too many devices are connected to the same network, operations such as downloading large files or streaming videos can affect call traffic.
🔹 Packet Loss and Misrouting: Loss or misrouting of data packets can cause audio to sound choppy or drop out completely.
🔹 Insufficient QoS (Quality of Service) Settings: Inadequate QoS settings can leave call traffic unprotected from other network activities and cause delays.
🔹 Router Problems: Old or non-optimized routers may not prioritize voice packets properly, causing a decrease in call quality.
How Can You Prevent Jitter-Related Problems?
To reduce jitter latency and improve your call quality, you can follow these steps:
✅ Configure QoS (Quality of Service) Settings
✅ Use a Stronger and Stable Internet Connection
✅ Provide Dedicated Bandwidth for VoIP Calls
✅ Optimize Router to Reduce Packet Loss
✅ Use CMR Data and Continuously Monitor Call Quality
Take proactive measures by detecting problems in advance.
Monitor real-time jitter, packet loss, and latency metrics.
