FOr what I know, It depends:

if you have reinvite set to "yes" in sip.conf, and there is no need of format
transcoding, the audio stream goes directly from phone to phone.

To check that just unplug the ethernet cable from the asterisk server
while having a conversation between 2 phones: call should stay up.

Hope it helps!
