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.

Point-to-Point T1 Definition Continued.

With the maturity of MPLS (multiprotocol label switching) technology, improvements in encryption, and the ability of tier 1 providers to maintain entire MPLS networks within their closed system, some now consider MPLS as secure as point-to-point. For two location networks within a few hundred miles of each other, point-to-point T1 is less expensive than MPLS. Point-to-point circuits are almost never managed (equipment provided and maintained) by providers. Point-to-point quotes almost never include the routers, which are needed at each end of the circuit. For multiple location networks, MPLS is far more functional, redundant, and less expensive than a network which includes a series of point-to-point lines. With point-to-point networks; management, configuration, and maintenance are the responsibility of the customer. MPLS networks, however, are pretty much turn-key. In most cases, the complete network is setup and maintained by the provider with no charge for installation or equipment. Point-to-Point lines are most commonly comprised of T1, T3, or OC circuits. MPLS networks can be comprised of a combination of virtually any bandwidth T1 or above, at any location on the network. This includes T1, bonded T1, fractional DS3, or full DS3. As dedicated circuits, point-to-point circuits are always connected and are billed at a flat monthly rate. Point-to-Point price quotes are higher than common T1 because point-to-point lines require local loops on each end, plus the distance between each of the two locations. As with all T1 services, maximum bandwidth can be utilized in both directions simultaneously. Applications which are best served by point-to-point include: extremely secure file transfer, voice (telephone), audio and video conferencing, and high quality video broadcast. Point-to-point service is for companies which need the best possible performance and security between two locations. If a network has more than two locations, and any-to-any connectivity is desired, then MPLS is a favorable option. (Click here to return to top of page)

Is PRI the Right Choice for Your Company?

Written by: Dennis Green - Nov 21, 2008

PRI (Primary Rate Interface) is an ISDN connection designed to be provided over T1 lines. In the United States, a PRI line consists of 24 (64 kbps each) DS0 channels. PRI T1 lines are commonly configured so that 23 channels serve as B (Bearer) channels and one as a D (delta) channel. Each B channel serves as a voice (telephone) channel. The D channel provides control and signaling information for the B channels. B channels can be used as independent channels to simultaneously provide a variety of services such as internet, voice, or imaging. They also have the flexibility to be bonded, as needed, to provide higher bandwidth for special needs such as video conferencing. A significant difference between PRI T1 and traditional integrated T1 is that T1s which are not PRI require a portion of each channel to be allocated for signaling functions. This results in a reduction in effectiveness, efficiency, potential and bandwidth for most functions of each channel of non-PRI T1. With T1 PRI, all signaling functions are provided by the 24th channel. This leaves each of the other 23 channels with a full 64 kbps, which can be fully dedicated to bearer functions. One D channel can provide signaling functions for several other PRI lines. It is not uncommon for two D channels (one as primary, one for backup) to provide the signaling functions for a span of as many as 20 PRI T1 lines. This frees the 24th channel of each of the other PRI lines so that they can be used as additional bearer channels. Because PRI lines serve as a direct connection to the telephone company’s central office, PRI is often the preferred choice of PBX customers. PRI T1 provides many advantages over traditional voice T1. These include: call by call service selection, more PBX users can be supported, caller ID, DID (direct inward dial) numbers, messaging, and video conferencing. Because of increased efficiency provided by PRI, companies which switch to PRI from traditional voice T1 often find that they not only receive a much greater variety of services but often do not need to pay for as many trunks as they needed prior to the change. PRI T1 is available in most major metropolitan areas, but is not available in most isolated rural areas.
