With new T1 circuit technology and capabilities, it is sometimes advantageous to consider a dynamically allocated T1 service, capable to handle all of your voice and data traffic through a single or combined T1 circuit. A single dynamically allocated T1 from Cbeyond provides you with 23 channels to use for data - with upload and download speeds near 1.544mbps. You can even combine 2 or 3 T1s to receive higher bandwidths, of over 3mbps or 4.5 mbps.
The advantage of a dynamically allocated T1 is when you're not using the phone for voice calls, you have more bandwidth available for data, which means faster upload and download speeds. Faster upload and download speed means your employees can be more productive. When you need to make voice calls, the dynamically allocated T1 automatically allocates bandwidth for voice calls. Using this kind of circuit technology makes more sense for most businesses based on being more cost effective and efficient than ordering separate services for voice and data communications. As we convert to session initiated protocol (SIP), this kind of circuitry will be the best interface.
One more important aspect, a T1 provides a symmetrical bandwidth stream so download and upload speeds are at the same fast rate of 1.544mbps. Other broadband access types will have an asymmetrical configuration, providing in most instances lower upload speeds. This will be noticeably less efficient for a business that has to upload large quantities of data. This is why a T1 is better than DSL or cable access, even though cable will sometimes be fast, the overall rate will average out much slower, especially for uploading data.
