[Freeswitch-users] SIP Multiplexed Trunk as IAX2 or TDM

There is no such thing as trunking in sip as in trunking like iax2...

There are much easier ways to deal with this in sip... For instance set your
ptime between freeswitch boxes to be 40ms, this effectively cuts the RTP/PPS
overhead in 1/2... Set it to 60ms cut it by 66%.... This works by increasing
the amount of audio sent in 1 pack from 20ms to 40 or 60ms...

Merging RTP between calls after that point is pretty much a mute point as
you already are achieving a large reduction in RTP overhead...
