TELECOM BITS The ISP you choose will have a direct affect on the quality of your internet service that comes into your home or business. Take stock of the functions on the telecommunications solution that would actually drive your business forward. Connections include Bonded (load balanced) T-1 (DS-1) lines (3 mbps to 12 mbps), T3 (DS3) lines (6 mbps to 45 mbps), point to point private lines. Because it’s not common for small and mid sized organizations to have this need, mostly only very big global corporations lease the T3 lines. When companies purchase extra connectivity on top of their fixed plan they end up paying more than what it would have cost them if they had a T3 line in the first place. A revolutionary Carrier Ethernet Network Availability SLA (service Level Agreement) assists you by assuring that best effort practices are being implemented to strengthen performance and increase efficiency. Not only will we save you the most money, we'll figure out a way to do it without sacrificing the integrity of your t1 voice service.
