Each 64 Kbps channel can connect to the Internet individually or the Internet T1 can be configured to aggregate all of the 24 channels into one large 1.544 Mbps concatenated channel.

You can install DIRECTV if you live in a multi-tenant buildings such as condos, apartments, and etc. The first qualifying consideration is to make sure that you have a clear line of sight to the Southern sky. In a multi-tenant building, if you are located on the lower floors, you may run into a problem where an object or a building might be block the line of sight to the DIRECTV satellite in the Southern sky. In most cases, you would want to consult with your landlord or property manager about installing a DIRECTV satellite dish on the roof or other suitable location on the building.

If your property manager or landlord does not allow placing a satellite dish on the roof, you may request to install the DIRECTV dish on your balcony, patio, or other suitable location. Sometimes the installation of your DIRECTV system (dish and/or converter units) may require structural changes that might be restricted or limited by the lease. In these cases, to avoid delays and possible problems in installation of your DIRECTV system, we recommend that you obtain a written or verbal permission from your property management and/or the landlord. You can also review your lease agreement to confirm permission before scheduling installation with DIRECTV and you can use the DIRECTV Installation Permission Form to document the permission. Unreasonable restrictions enforced by the property managers or landlords against installing satellite dishes that are a meter or less in size are prohibited by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).










VoIP:
Voice over IP (VoIP) sends voice data in packets using the Internet Protocol (IP) instead of analog waves as does plain old telephone service (POTS) lines. Voice and Internet services are delivered over a local loop access circuit using the Internet Protocol (IP), and phone calls are delivered over the carefully-managed network often running the SIP protocol for Voice over IP. Many VoIP service providers guarantee that phone calls will not travel over the public Internet, but are converted and transmitted over the traditional telephone network directly from the VoIP provider's private Internet network that usually adheres to a defined Quality of Service (QoS).

MPLS (Multi-Protocol Label Switching):
MPLS is a standardized data switching technology that optimizes network traffic flow and eases management of data networks. MPLS carves specific paths data packets that are identified by a label that saves the time needed for a router to look up the address to the next node in order to forward the packet. MPLS works with the Internet Protocol (IP), Asynchronous Transport Mode (ATM), and frame relay network protocols. MPLS allows most packets to be forwarded at the layer 2 (switching) level rather than at the layer 3 (routing) level and makes it easy to manage quality of service (QoS).




High Speed Internet Access via Ethernet
High Speed Internet Access via Ethernet local access connects end user Ethernet local area networks (LANs) to the Internet over a metropolitan wide area networks (WANs) at speeds ranging from 1 megabit per second (Mbps) up to 1 gigabit per second (Gbps). Internet access via Ethernet is an "always on", flat-rate service that offers faster, more cost effective Internet access than is available through traditional telecommunication access technologies such as T1 / T3 or E1 / E3 connections.

Internet access via Ethernet is becoming more and more popular to meet the growing demand for dynamic high bandwidth increases. For example, an increase from 10 to 100 Mbps can be accomplished by a High Speed Internet over Ethernet provider by simple changing the settings on already installed Ethernet switches. This scalability is cost effective for customers in that bandwidth can be increased or decreased quickly and easily, on demand, without the necessity of adding or changing datacom equipment as would be required with T1 / T3 or E1 / E3 local access lines.




DSL (Digital Subscriber Line Service):
Digital Subscriber Line Service (DSL) has become a very popular Internet access service. This is because DSL uses the existing copper pairs that already exist between most customer premise offices and the local phone company central office (CO). A DSL connection is set up between a DSL modem at the customer premise and a DSL access multiplexer, or DSLAM, at the phone company central office. Both voice and data can be run across the same DSL connection by using a filter to separate voice traffic from Internet traffic.

DSL has become a widely-accepted and increasingly reliable method of delivering phone service and providing Internet access that saves end users money because both voice and data are delivered across the same plain old telephone serivce (POTS) line. However, the distance to the local phone company central office where the copper POTS line is connected from the customer premise to the DSLAM will determine the potential speed of the DSL connection.




Wireless Internet Service:
High-speed satellite and microwave Internet connections for business can replace or back up traditional terrestrial landlines such as Internet T1s and Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) service. With wireless IInternet service in place as your primary or backup Internet connection, you can always count on low-latency connection to the Internet that means you will have an "always up", "never down", "zero outage" service that eliminates wasted time and increases productivity.

 Is a T1 Connection Better than DSL?

Written by: Patrick Oborn - Jan 7, 2009


Is a T1 connection better than a DSL connection? A more appropriate question might be "Is a T1 connection MORE APPROPRIATE than a DSL connections. A T1 connection and DSL connection both offer bandwidth at high speed but have two factors that greatly differentiate them from one another. Those factors are price and reliability. A DSL connection has a low price and is less reliable than a T1 connection. A T1 is much more expensive than a DSL connection but is also much more reliable.

So are you looking for reliability or price? Reliability becomes critical when customers or employees depend on your connection for immediate responses. If your customers use your connection to access your databases or your server or the internet then reliability of your connection is critical. If your employees depend on your connections because you host the e-mail server in house or host web servers, your connections is considered critical. A critical connection can be viewed much like a life line, without which your business would be negatively impacted. Your monthly savings of having a sub-par connections will not make up for the loss in productivity of your employees or loss of customers when your DSL connections gets bogged down or cut off. To reiterate, critical connections should be supported with a T1 connection.

Many customers are extremely price sensitive and cannot afford the cost of a T1 which can be as much as 20 times more expensive than a full T1 connection. Residential customers who are most sensitive to price should not consider a T1 connection unless then have a business reason to pay for such a circuit and cannot access DSL service. You may get lucky and find a T1 connection that is low cost which would give you both price and reliability but be careful. Many T1's sold for less than $600 are not truly dedicated circuits and are oversubscribed. In short, if price is your critical factor go with DSL. If reliability is the critical factor purchase a dedicated T1.
