T1 versus DSL
Upon what situation should you improve your Internet service performance to a speedier and even more reliable T1 line? When looking at possibly replacing your current DSL connection, you have to consider a number of different issues. Financial loss occurring during the event of connectivity loss and reliability are the major aspects to consider in the case of both small and large business operations. High-speed Internet is important for many firms to conduct business over e-mail, video conferencing, and voice-over-Internet telephone programs. Should an outage occur, your business could be affected on all stages.
Ordinarily, a T1 line will deliver a reliable bi-directional performance of 1.5 Mbps. Then again, the bandwidth that a DSL connection is able to work is fully based upon the distance from the DSLAM, that is the actual equipment device situated in your subdivision by the telephone company. DSL's maximum range is 18,000 feet. After that, the copper line's signal is too weak to reliably communicate data.
Customer service is another aspect that differs between a T1 and DSL line. You will find there is a technical support team supporting a T1 line. This trained team guarantees a 99.99% uptime, around the clock, seven days a week, because the system is checked continuously. With the first sign of an outage, the technicians immediately start to work to identify the reason behind the issue and repair it. On the other hand, DSL service requires you to act by contacting customer support then waiting on hold until a customer support representative is available to take your call and help you.
Cost is the final difference between a T1 and DSL line. Depending on the type of plan you have, the expense of DSL service may well be between $19 and $79 a month. As lately as a few years ago a T1 line rate averaged about $1,000 per month. This was past the financial constraints of numerous businesses. Ever since then the expense of a T1 connection now is priced starting from high $300's to the low $700's monthly, making it a choice that small businesses and even home offices will most likely consider. A T1 line is a bit more pricey than DSL, but what is the true cost for your business if your Internet connection crashes? If you feel that your work absolutely demands that your employees, phone calls, and electronic mail will always be up, it is necessary that you replace DSL and get a reliable T1 line.
