Re: Article sorry of me being out on this work called me out.
For a t-5 it is 4500/ 4500 going back up. For a t-8 it is 7500/7500 going back up. These two have been out since 2001. (I believe im right on the t-8 specs but no one uses them).
Most cable head end uses between 10 to 50 T-1 lines at once. Its not profitable using t-3 lines too much money. |

1 edit | reply to bigunk I cant find anymore info on it anymore for some reason. I do remember it on my MCSC certification when i finshed it. I think they have changed the name on them To go with the europe side to be equal on both sides of the pond.
This is a old link but they just past over it (look near the bottom) »www.os2voice.org/VNL/past_issues···wsf2.htm
I will copy and paste if you feel like looking at the bottom..
Quote from the page (These are 4 of the most common (and affordable) methods to connect to the Internet for the Home and SOHO user. There are other, faster, ways to connect, but with speed comes a price. T-1, T-3 and T-5 connections are simply out of reach, presently, for home and SOHO users, so there is little point in going into details on these.) |

That's more than 50 T-1's?? -- A is A |

 | If i remember right our T-1 at work is only 300 a month.
Thanks for the info there John on that quote it has me puzzled if thats what they say more power to them. 2250 is a cheap price but how much is the loop or is that added in? |

 | reply to BosstonesOwn said by BosstonesOwn:Call sbc or qwest. at this point they are quoting well below 250 if you are even remotely close to any co with a decent pop. You obviously havent been T1 shopping recently.
Tariff price on a loop is somewhere around 250 in the state of Texas. Add data charges to this, you easily get to 500. SBC quoted me just the other day at 545 plus tax.
It doesnt matter if you are close to a CO, within a POP, or anything like that. The monthly cost of a dedicated hi-cap line is pretty much the same across the board. There isnt much of a change between prices.
Its the installation costs that will get you. If you live in the boonies, you can get a T-1 provided the equipment is installed and they have a backhaul to a POP. Most do. Digging up and laying down a loop might cost you a small fortune though. |

Thats weird Today i installed 2 t-1 to a tower in central mass and a t-3 to western mass tower and the quotes and prices we got were much lower then that. t3 to a mountain tower was 2750 with local loop. and the t's as back up were 275 -- "It's always funny until someone gets hurt......and then it's absolutely friggin' hysterical!" |
