PureCloud's WebRTC Leg is Opus only, because we've not had demand or need for G.711, especially since Opus is so much more performant and has a higher quality. If your external BYOC trunk is G.711, that's fine because the PureCloud edge does the transcoding between legs. You don't need additional infrastructure or encoding anywhere.

Subject: WebRTC supported codec
Hi all,
Referring to the subject title, I know that WebRTC only supports Opus Codec (https://help.mypurecloud.com/articles/configure-the-preferred-codec-list/).
However, we are using BYOC trunk where the provider can support only g711 / PCMA. We have done projects in the pass where WebRTC in PureCloud supports g711, may I know why has the support for this codec been deprecated? It is quite a common codec in the industry. Is there anything I can do if both sides does not support each other's codec, hosting a converter somewhere?
Any advice will be much appreciated.
Thanks!
Boey
