Get the high quality of clear audio with Jitter Buffer

1. What is Jitter Buffer in VoIP & how Twilio tackles this in conference calls? Jitter Buffer is a component of VoIP. It is a mutual data-sharing platform that comprises voice packets. These voice packets are collected, stored, and sent over to the voice processor within regular time intervals. Sometimes, there is some lag in the time interval between voice packet transmission which is known as jitter. The reason behind this Jitter could be anything from network congestion, time drifting, or even route changes. The function of the Jitter Buffer is to time these delays so that end-users always get a clear connection with as little distortion as possible.

2. Twilio, one of the leading cloud communication platforms, also provides Jitter Buffer services to its users. It is most significant in the Twilio Conference application where it is used to tackle out the delay in the voice packet arrival time. There are some of the most optimum ways to minimize the Jitter Buffer, for example, you can use it at the receiving side or optimize the local network and settings. To get even better service, you can use Twilio’s SIP Trunking which provides private connections and routing choices. You can either opt to route your traffic either to a public network or a private network.
