Actually, atleast on the SCCP load, the phone would take precedence over the computer plugged into the phone. Anything else plugged into the switch would be able to disrupt the call, however, and, as Rich said, both ends of your upstream connection would need to prioritize the voip traffic to get a reliable QoS. That applies, of course, only if you are terminating over the internet. If you are terminating to a local FXO the gateway/* box may need to prioritize the traffic.
