Sure, there are tactics that we implement for Unified Communications, such as dedicated voice VLANs and Quality of Service mechanisms like Low Latency Queuing. However, at the end of the day, all of these packets still have to compete with the many other types of traffic in your datacenter infrastructure; and let’s face it, a simpler architecture is a faster and more easily managed architecture.
