TELECOM BITS Although a DS-3 (DS3) may be split into 672 individual channels (DS-0s), each of which transmits data a a rate of 64 Kbps. Gigabit Ethernet LAN speeds are the fastest connections available today and ten gigabits per second is the current cap for processing speeds. Systems that are capable of transferring up to ten gigabits per second, open up many new opportunities for large corporations. Our pricing and services includes port, Internet access with a full SLA Nationwide Tier One Provider. Any new technology or a change in configurations the LEC must first notify the CLEC prior to doing any work.

The Synchronous Transport Module or STM-1 is the SDH ITU-T fiber optic network transmission standard which has a bit rate of 155.52 Mbps and other levels of the Synchronous Transport Module are STM 4, STM 16 and STM 64 accordingly. Not all dark fiber networks or dark fiber suppliers do the same level of round the clock signal testing. The inherent delay in transmitting a signal to a satellite that is located 22,300 miles from the Earth's surface which is a 44,000 mile distance which presents special challenges for applications that demand real-time synchronization. A Bonded T1 line delivers the speed of two 1.5 Mbps DS1 loops together into one affordable, congruent connection to deliver 3.0 Mbps of symmetrical upload and download speed. (EPL) or Ethernet Private Line Service is a dedicated point-to-point service with capacity from 3 Mbps, 10Mbps, 100Mbps and 1 Gbps with 1 MB - 10MB Bursts in between.

A Fractional T1 line is a portion of a 24 channel circuit providing an internet connection straight from the broadband provider backbone. One way to have a dedicated line with guaranteed speed is to go with DSL or a dedicated T1 or T3 line. Telephone providers are avidly trying to lower the price of the cables, they are even offering lease agreements so you can pay a little bit less every month to use this special cable. This page describes the term T-1 carrier and lists other pages on the Web where you can find additional telecommunications information. T1 lines are often known for their usual utilization of aggregating multiple phone calls on 1 digital trunk by using TDM or also known as Time Division Multiplexing.
