Coverage Area
Unlike DSL and other broadband technologies that are limited to only densely populated
areas, T1 service is available just about anywhere with a phone line. T1, also known
as DS1, uses repeaters to boost up the signal strength of the transmission - allowing
it to travel up to 50 miles away from the nearest Central Office location.
A T-1 line actually consists of 24 individual channels, each of these channels supports 64 Kbits per second. Each 64Kbit per second channel can be configured to carry data or voice transmissions.
A T1 connection is sometimes referred to as a "dedicated service" as the service is delivered to and from the customer premise from the CO (Central Office) without combining it with other traffic.
A T1 connection is established by providing a loop or wire from the user premises to the CO where the service provider has equipment. Part of the cost of a T1 is the loop charge or the monthly rental fee for the wire that is rented from the local phone company.
T-1 lines are a popular leased line option for businesses connecting to the Internet and for Internet Service Providers (ISP's) connecting to the Internet backbone.
The Internet backbone itself consists of faster T-3 line connections.
Shopping for T1 lines is not easy. You perform a search in your favorite search engine and you see millions of pages, all of which claim to save you money.
They create simple HTML forms that look like they have been programmed by a seventh grade student which captures your information, and either sends it to every vendor in the universe or some in-house former used-car salesman who will sell you whatever will pay him the biggest bonus.
A T1 Line and DSL connection both offer bandwidth at high speed but there are factors that greatly differentiate them from one another. These factors are price and reliability.
Depending on your location and T1 provider availability, a fractional T1 will normally be priced between $250.00 and $750.00. A T1 is more expensive than a DSL connection but is much more reliable.
DSL is a quick and cost effective method of acquiring high speed bandwidth however it is not intended to support commercial applications or large numbers of users like a T1 connection.
Q: What is T1 or DS-1? T1 is a member of the T-carrier system. T-carrier is a communications system used for carrying voice and data transmissions in a digital format. T1 meets the needs of businesses having multiple users on a system requiring fast speed and broad bandwidth. For a fixed monthly rate, businesses with 20 or more users can communicate via both voice and data. A Full T1 line can accommodate as many as 24 users working at 64 Kbps .
T1 provides high speed, point-to-point digital transmission line (up to 1.544 Mbps). It is widely deployed and readily available in most regions. It is currently the most common way that large companies connect their LAN to the rest of the world.
Q: How does T1 work? T1 uses pulse code modulation and time-division multiplexing to deliver voice and data information simultaneously. T1 is a digital transmission service that can be divided into 24 voice channels for carrying voice and data. The entire 1.544 Mbps bandwidth, or any portion of this, can be used as a single high-speed data channel. A T1 line can carry both data and voice signals on the same line with the data part of the line continuously connected.
Q: What type of service is a DS1 line? DS1 is a dedicated high-speed digital line.
Q: Does T1 have more capacity than ISDN? Yes, T1 has more than 10 times the capacity of an ISDN connection.
Q: Are there any special equipment requirements for T1? Yes. To use T1-connection, you'll need a router with a built in T1 link and a Network Interface Card (NIC). You'll also need a CSU/DSU.
Q: What is a CSU/DSU? T1 is made up of 24 digital channels. This requires a digital connection device (CSU/DSU {customer switching unit/digital switching unit}) to connect to four wires to carry the information. All T1 lines require that a Channel Service Unit (CSU) be connected between your Data Terminal Equipment (DTE), i.e., a personal computer, and the T1 line. A CSU serves both as a surge protector (to protect your equipment from voltage anomalies such as lightning) and a monitor of the line itself.
A CSU is used to connect Non Data Terminal Equipment to a T1 line. A CSU/DSU [Channel Service Unit / Data Service Unit] is a piece of equipment that connects a leased line from the telephone company to the customer's equipment (such as a router). It performs line encoding and conditioning functions and often has a loopback function for testing. If your DTE doesn't provide a "T1 Out" for a CSU, then a combined DSU/CSU will be required. Many of these devices include sophisticated performance monitoring and diagnostic capabilities. For full T1 service, you must provide a Channel Service Unit (CSU).
Q: Does T1 work with my existing phone wires and equipment? Yes, but it may require special jacks and connections, or changes to your inside wiring. Your service provider may need to install new wire.
Q: Is T1 installed only on wire? No. T1 can be installed on any of the following:
Twisted-pair copper wire.
Fiber optics.
Coaxial cable.
Digital microwave.
Infrared lighting.
Q: Can I install T1? Due to the complexity of the technology, T1 is usually installed by your service provider.
Q: I've heard T1 referred to as DS-1. What does this mean? T1 lines are frequently referred to as DS-1. "DS" stands for digital signal level, i.e., the actual speed of each T carrier service. Each flavor of T-carrier has a different speed. DS-1 is the entire bandwidth of the T1 service, 1.544 Mbps. DS-0 refers to the speed of each of the 24 channels of the T1 service, i.e., 64 Kbps.
Q: Can I lease a portion of T1? Yes. If your business doesn't require a full 1.544 megabit connection, then you can opt for a portion of T1. This is called fractional T1. You can get fractionalT1 and then flexibly grow to the full 1.544Mbps as your network expands or as your needs change.
Q: What can I do with T1? T1 lines are high-capacity lines used to carry voice and data, and access the Internet. These lines are also used to connect individual networks to the Internet. T1 circuits are frequently used to link remote LANs . Also, T1 can be used to bring Centrex service from the telephone company's central office (CO) to your business.
Centrex is a telephone company central office-based service provided by a local service provider (i.e. your local telephone company). Centrex, brought to you by T1, can route and switch your calls. It can give you PBX-like enhanced services such as conference calling, call forwarding, caller Id, and other vertical features. Using Centrex, you can save money since you don't need phone operators, administrators, and other resources needed to manage your phone lines. Another plus is that you do not need to use on-site switching equipment. With Centrex, some of the automated features that you can get include Direct Inward Dialing, Direct Outward Dialing and Automatic Identification of dialed calls.
Q: Can I use File Transfer Protocol (FTP) with T1? Yes. In conjunction with the proper software, FTP will allow your computers that are connected to the Internet to exchange files regardless of the computer platform. This will increase efficiency for your business.
Q: Can I run my own servers? Yes. You can run your own Domain Name System (DNS), mail, or web servers.
Q: What are some features of T1? Fast Internet access, very high bandwidth and speed, reliability, "always on" service and increased security make it highly desirable for many businesses.
Q: What are some benefits of T1? T1 is a cost effective solution for many small to medium sized businesses and has many benefits including the following:
It's efficient, very fast, and cost-effective for your growing business.
The connection is always on!
Multi-users can talk on the phone and use the Internet simultaneously on one phone line!
Multi-users can download files at a speed that will achieve all your business objectives!
You can host your own services (such as an Email, File transfer Protocol (FTP), or Web server).
Q: Is T1 more expensive than a standard telephone line? Yes. T1 is a premium service. It is an extremely high-quality, state-of-the-art communications service. This increased expense will be offset by the increased productivity you'll experience.
Q: How much does T1 cost? T1 is a very fast (10 times faster than ISDN) leased service and this may come at a premium, but it provides a cost-effective solution for many businesses. Setup and installation will probably be your biggest out-of-pocket expenditure. Click here to get Free Quotes .
T1 is an excellent solution for companies, especially those that can initially use fractional T1.
