T1 Internet Access for Dummies
The T1 Internet Service continues to be around for over 4 decades yet never have there been so many "flavors" available. The number of providers has leaped amazingly from deregulation in 1996 from a few dozen to several thousand. As the telecom shakedown that began in 2001 continues most of these businesses are attempting to stay afloat by getting as many clients as possible with low-cost solutions they claim to be T1. Don't be fooled!
Lots of the desperate companies are putting together substandard products they assert are T1 solutions. Be wary of products using the weird titles similar to "burstable" and "reach". These products can be oversubscribed similar to a DSL product. This means the provider places a single T1 connection within a CO (Central Office) and provides T1 hook ups to three or four customers hoping individuals don't all make use of the resource simultaneously. T1 access implies sole access to the Internet and you invariably have access to 1.54Mbps.
Be certain the T1 service in Escambia is really a "clearchannel" item and is not shared with different users. Also be sure you have an SLA or Service Level Agreement from your supplier. A SLA will specify the access you will get and the penalty the service provider pays in the event that they don't supply this kind of service. If you need help, establishing the correct SLA gives you the help of an expert in case you don't have one already. It's much better to spend a tiny price up front than to enter a long term agreement with an substandard provider. You can definitely receive expert assistance free of charge by simply contacting among the many T1 brokers on the Internet.
