I send a video and an audio stream between 2 devices with the UDP protocol. The 2 streams are sent through a single port.

My question is: Is there any advantage (speed, throughput, risk of congestion, ...) in sending the video stream through one port and the audio stream through another? (Each of the ports being assigned to an independent thread)

Or expressed differentlyin other words: Can we transmit more data through two ports instead of just one? Or it will not change anything because the speed and the throughput are limited by the CPUs, the OS, the network cards, ...
