Hi,

In a busy network you need to use prio. Check how many channels of voice 
you do need and bandwidth required by each channel (16-32 kbits?). Put 
voice (udp packets) in the higher priority prio queue and use tbf behind it 
to limit traffic via prio to the maximum required for your channels. Or use 
htp putting your udp traffic in the higher priority class.

Be careful that higher prio traffic can't be more than 20-30% of the link 
capacity to avoid starvation of lower prio traffic.

Don´t expect good quality in a busy network. When congestion appears your 
udp packets will be dropped with no mercy (udp is an unresponssive 
protocol) hurting quality.

Best regards,

Leonardo Balliache

Ps: Cisco has (check your IOS version) RTP header compression that can help 
a lot to lowering bandwidth requirements. You have to enable it at both 
sides of the link. Also, why don't try directly with Cisco PQ?
