T1 service is a dedicated Internet
connection
that is almost always used for business. The bandwidth is
1.54 Mbps in both directions
and that
symmetrical bandwidth is what sets them apart from DSL or Cable
services. The
upstream speed is the same as
the
downstream,
where the upstream on DSL or Cable
connections are
almost always much lower
than the downstream.
The
newest
type of connections that areavailable nationally are Dedicated
Ethernet connections. The
bandwidth
ranges from 1 MB to 1 GB. At this time, most metro areas have
Ethernet available, with
other
areas coming up as time goes by. Ethernet service can be delivered over copper pairs for short
distances and by fiber for longer distances and higher bandwidths.
T1s are highly reliable
dedicated Internet connections that are available in most areas of the
US,
they are used when a company has to be online all the time. The
most popular reasons to
have a
dedicated T1 connection is for VOIP, streaming video or large data
file transfers.
The best way to get
the lowest rate
from
a reliable carrier is to find one who has a point of presence
(POP) near your location, thats what
we do. The
phone
circuit
between your location and the POP is
known as the
local loop and that is the part of
the connection that the "T" in T-1 stands for. On average,
the
local loop
represents 70% to 80% of the monthly cost. If you happen to be far from
a
POP city the
cost will be
higher than
the national average of $298 to $469 per month. 98% of our customers have
paid between
$298 and $469
per month for a full 1.54 Mbps connection.
If you need higher
bandwidth than the
standard
1.5 Mbps and Ethernet is not available, then bonded T-1s
are the next step up, before you need a T3 connection.
Bonded T-1s
are available in multiples of 1.5 Mbps,
like 3.0 Mbps, 4.5 Mbps, 6.0 Mbps, 7.5 Mbps, 9.0 Mbps,
etc. The
limit is usually 12 bonded T-1s for a total
of 18 Mbps. Bonded connections are a good choice
if you do
not expect to go over 18 Mbps of total
bandwidth and if the local loop distance is high. In
most cases,
you will still save money on a bonded
connection over a T3 connection, but an Ethernet connection is
the best value if you can get it.
Hopefully the information above will help you understand what dedicated
T-1s are all about. Please feel
comfortable calling us for a free consultation. We are
always glad to speak with business customers
who need help locating the right connection.
