Codecs
CODEC is an abbreviation of COmpress-DECompress, and is capable of coding or decoding a digital data
stream or signal by implementing an algorithm. The object of the algorithm is to represent the high-fidelity
audio/video signal with a minimum number of bits while retaining quality. This can effectively reduce the
frame size and the bandwidth required for audio/video transmission. The administrator can configure the
codec and its priority for the devices.

negotiated with the called party according to the priority.
