Use Case 2

Service Provider 2 supports H.263 video, for which the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller offers a pre-provisioned media profile with a set bandwidth value. And yet, H.263 is not a codec that has a single bandwidth value. Instead, H.263 can have different bandwidth values that correspond to various screen resolution and quality. While it is true that the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controllercan learn the requisite bandwidth value from SDP, not all SDP carries the bandwidth value nor do system operators always trust the values communicated.

Configuring multiple media profiles for the same codec (here, H.263) helps considerably with this problem—and moves closer to complete solution. Service Provider 2 can configure H.263 media profiles capable of handling the different bandwidth values that might appear.
