SIP Early Offer vs Delayed Offer

Early Offer
Initial SIP INVITE is sent with SDP message body. Session initiator allows called device to choose its codec for the session.

Why early media?

The called device might want to establish an early media RTP path to reduce the effect of audio cut-through delay for calls experiencing a long signal delay.
Calling device might want to establish early media RTP path to access DTMF or Voice driven IVR system.

Delayed Offer

Initial SIP message is sent without SDP message body.Session initiator waits for the called device to send capabilities first.
Delayed offer is recommended for SIP trunks.By default, CUCM supports delayed offer.
