Configuring Wideband Codec
If Cisco Unified Communications Manager has been configured to use G.722 (G.722 is enabled by
default for the Cisco Unified IP Phones 7962G, 7942G, 7961G, 7961G-GE, 7941G, and 7941G-GE) and
if the far endpoint supports G.722, the call can connect using the G.722 codec in place of G.711. This
situation occurs regardless of whether the user has enabled a wideband headset or wideband handset, but
