# \&outboundaudiobitrate

Sender-Side Option! ([`&push`](/advanced-settings/setup-parameters/push.md))

## Aliases

* `&oab`

## Options

Example: `&outboundaudiobitrate=128`

| Value           | Description                    |
| --------------- | ------------------------------ |
| (integer value) | outbound audio bitrate in kbps |

## Details

Target audio bitrate and max bitrate for outgoing audio streams.

Allows the Director to set their outbound audio bitrate to be shared with guests at something like 160-kbps, while having the guests still be able to share their audio between other guests at the default audio bitrate of around 32-kbps. If the guest sets the audio bitrate ([`&proaudio=1`](/advanced-settings/audio-parameters/and-proaudio.md) or [`&audiobitrate=200`](/advanced-settings/audio-parameters/audiobitrate.md)) on the view link will override the publisher's `&outboundaudiobitrate` parameter.
