T1 Internet

Relieve Your Internet Traffic

Many businesses with over 20 users often try to find an Internet access technology that is dependable and fast. One small hiccup in the transport of data can possibly cause all your users to become dissatisfied and most importantly, lose their efficiency. There are several different options when it comes to an Internet connection for your business and some are better suited to specific needs. A T1 line is one of the most common Internet connections in business and it is most suited to those companies who need moderate upload bandwidth but do not have less expensive access methods available, such as EoC, Fiber or Fixed-Wireless.

How does it work?

T1 is a digital carrier facility that is used to transmit at DS-1 formatted digital signals at 1.544 Megabits per second. A T1 line will do the job for your Internet transport needs since it can carry 24 channels at 64kbps from A to B. You will be able to carry the usual mix – analog voice, digital voice, data, or all three combined. This large “water main-like” technology acts as the major carrier of your Internet traffic.

What’s in it for you?

Guaranteed Internet connection. T1 Internet access is a “dedicated” access technology, which means your Internet speed is guaranteed to transmit at the speed purchased at all times. Dedicated Internet connections, like T1, also always come with an SLA (Service Level Agreement), guaranteeing the quality of your connection’s Latency, Packet Loss and Network Availability.
Invest in higher download and upload speeds. With a T1 connection, your upload speed is just as fast as your download speed, allowing your company to send data to the outside world at a faster rate (i.e. sending emails, using a cloud computing application or sending data to remote users). You can also bond T1 circuits together and hence, increase your company’s Internet speed by 1.54M with each circuit, up to a maximum of approx. 12M.

Benefit in greater productivity. By ensuring a fast, consistent upload speed, your company will be able to run the applications you need, at the speed your employees require. Your business will get tasks done quicker and be more efficient that ever.
Your very own personal line. No matter how many different companies are obtaining a T1 line from a specific provider, you will never have to share the service with anyone else. Your T1 connection is yours and only yours. This results in a decrease in latency as well as an increase in the efficiency of the bandwidth being used by your company.

Better response time. With T1 internet services, your connection is being monitored 24/7, when you’re in the office and even when you’re at home asleep. Because it falls within the dedicated Internet access (DIA), category of connections, your T1 line will also include a service level agreement (SLA), that typically guarantees a maximum 4 hour time to repair. This is much improved over the 24 hour guarantee given by the lesser-quality connections, such as DSL and business class cable.
