You didn't specify, but I assume you are looking to use as much of the
bandwidth as possible for data, and utilize any unused voice bandwidth.
If your equipment is capable, you can set the voice vc to "variable
bit-rate - real-time," and the data vc to "available bandwidth." When
there is no voice traffic, the full bandwidth is available for data, and
voice traffic will take only what it needs, up to the maximum configured
bit-rate.
