Hi Kenneth, I will defer to the real experts here, but I believe what happens is that the voice is channeled to a different frequency channel than the data (IP) flow in most cable designs. Thus there isn't the possibility to damage voice transmission with burstiness from data packets. Unless, of course, the system has not been set up with channel separation, as when voice is packetized and sent as part of the data stream, in which case, protocols such as H.323 and Diffserv have to come into play for QoS considerations. And to this date, has not been done with completely satisfactory results. HTH, Ray
