Sirs:

We have a CISCO VoIP Network to provide IP telephony to our customers.
The CISCO VoIP Network is interconnected to PSTN over E1 lines using
5850 gateways.
We want to provide dial-up Internet access to our customers. Most
customer are on the PSTN side with standard phone lines and they dial
using a modem to a Access Server (TNT MAX box) which is located at
other side the VoIP network. We deliver the link to TNT box over an E1
R2 using a 2600.
Basically the scenario is as follow:

Remote PC--phone_line----PSTN---CISCO5850---VoIP Network----2600----E1
line---TNT Access Server

We have made several test calls and the modem are interconnecting well
but we noted a higher delay when doing a ping from the Remote PC to
TNT box. Typically delays over a dialup connection is 110 ms over
PSTN lines but in our scenario VoIP the average delay starts at 280 ms
and sometimes the average goes up to 480 ms. The modems remain
connected but this delay affects the browsing.

Why is a higher delay over a modem connection through a VoIP network?
We need to decrease this delay to acceptable values similar as a modem
connection over PSTN Network.

Regards,
Luis

Aaron:

I understand a higher delay than 110 ms is expected because the
packetization.

However, I like to know what is the typical round trip time expected
for a modem connection over IP.

Thanks,
Luis
