Written by: Shop For Bandwidth - Oct 15, 2008 Q: What is T1 or DS-1?
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:
