In some implementations, an application server may receive, from a calling party user equipment, a call for a called party associated with multiple user equipment. The application server may provide to the multiple user equipment, and based on the call, a request for transcoding information associated with the multiple user equipment. The application server may assign a transcoding resource for handling the call, wherein the transcoding resource is provided in a network. The application server may receive, based on the request, the transcoding information from a particular user equipment of the multiple user equipment. The application server may provide the transcoding information to the transcoding resource, wherein the transcoding information causes the transcoding resource to establish and transcode the call between the calling party user equipment and the particular user equipment.
