T1's
are really not that
confusing. First off
there are basically
2 main types of T1's:
voice or data. A voice
T1 is usually ordered
PRI for a call center.
A PRI T1 consists
of 23 individual telephone
lines ordered in bulk
with the ability to
manipulate the number
that displays on caller
id (caller id manipulating
available if you have
a dialer that gives
you this feature).
This T1 will be delivered
to your office much
like a regular telephone
connection but it
will be a larger cat-5
type network cable.
Our long distance
rates begin at 1.4
cents per minute for
out of state calls.
On a long distance
T1 you will almost
always, if not always,
pay a larger fee for
your in-state telephone
calls.
You
will also save money
by having a T1 because
business telephone
lines in most cases
are around $50.00
per month per line
but you can get a
bulk order of 23 lines
via a long distance
T1 for about $180
per month plus 1.19
cent per minute long
distance (out of state
calls). T1 billing
can be pretty tricky
so UsedDialers.com
has teamed up with
VIP Telecom to take
the guessing out of
your bill. It will
be easily and clearly
defined in your agreement
so you won't have
to guess how much
each call costs.
A data T1 is basically
a guaranteed internet
connection of 1.544
megabits per second.
Most people will easily
notice that they get
faster internet at
home but the difference
is GUARANTEED bandwidth
that never goes below
the 1.544 megabits
per second. When you
are making over 12
simultaneous telephone
calls off of a data
connection you should
go ahead and pay the
extra money to get
a data T1 if you are
using voip in our
eyes.
If
you are confused or
unsure about how much
you are paying or
what your billing
rates are, we can
just about guarantee
you are paying way
too much. We are never
high pressure but
a 5 minute phone call
to us has saved several
call centers 50% off
of their current phone
bill. Don't forget,
if you are using analog
phone lines that 23
or 24 analog lines
are delivered through
a T1 basically. The
cost for virtually
every T1 we quote
is less than $180
for the monthly cost
of having all of those
lines. You will save
in many areas by using
a T1 plus add other
features like switching
the phone number that
displays on the caller
id of your potential
customer and can add
first-hello on capable
systems.
