Does Voice-Enterprise test performance requirements?

The Voice-Enterprise certification program tests the performance of the Wi-Fi implementations in voice over Wi-Fi application, in a simulated network environment, with four (802.11b) or ten (802.11a/g/n) concurrent voice calls, a high speed video stream, and sustained data traffic loads, designed to represent a fully loaded network. To achieve certification, devices must meet the following thresholds:

  • Packet loss of less than 1%
  • No more than three consecutive lost packets
  • Latency of less than 50 milliseconds
  • Maximum jitter of less than 50 milliseconds
