A.
33.98 Mbps

B.
58.40 Mbps

C.
41.80 Mbps

D.
25.29 Mbps

Explanation:
SIP Trunk Peak Bandwidth = Max Simultaneous Calls x (64 kbps + header size). Header size is 20 bytes maximum. (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg425743.aspx)

Lync Server 2010 supports only the following codecs:
* G.711 a-law (used primarily outside North America)
* G.711 -law (used in North America)

    In this articles, we can see the formula Microsoft uses:

    SIP Trunk Peak Bandwidth = Max Simultaneous Calls x 80kbps

    so, if we convert the bandwidth from mbps to kbps

    33.98 Mbps = 33980 Kbps / 80 Kbps = 424.75 Simultaneous calls, WRONG
    58.40 Mbps = 58400 Kbps / 80 Kbps = 730 Simultaneous calls, OK
    41.80 Mbps = 41800 Kbps / 80 Kbps = 522.5 Simultaneous calls, WRONG
    25.29 Mbps = 25290 Kbps / 80 Kbps = 316.125 Simultaneous calls, WRONG

    Simultaneous calls must be an integer, so the right answer is B

    Additionaly the case study has the following table with typical bandwidth usage:
    ————————-
    Codec Bandwidth
    —– ———
    G.711 59.8Kbps
    G.722 42.8 Kbps
    RT Audio (8 KHz) 25.9 Kbps
    RT Audio (16 KHz) 34.8 Kbps
    ————————-

    Calculation for G7.11 (used by SIP-trunks):
    (1000*59,8Kbps)/1024=58,3984375Mbps -> rounded to 58,40Mbps
