We have a couple remotes that are fiber fed, but most are fed by copper circuits. A T1 can either come over fiber or copper, and is 1.544 megabits/sec. When referring to the 24 channels a T1 can provide, you're usually referring to digitized voice channels. When you use it for data, you achieve the 1.544mb/s ratio, providing you have a "full" T1.

Kraphty is right in that a T1 can use either 1 or 2 pairs. All our circuits are on 2 pairs, a Tx side and a Rx side.

The T1's can be either a single pair or 2 pairs depending on many different factors (usually provisioned on singles these days). The channels are different frequencies transmitted on that pair.

I'm w/you....bring the upload! I can stay w/3Mb down and be perfectly fine! :)

I am however dreading getting the extra bandwidth to our remotes here. We had to install at least 2 more T-1s to each remote, depending on subscriber count, to effectively handle 3 meg. So going to 6 will be a fun task. Hint hint Alltel: lets do this with fiber!!
Would fiber be in pair of 2 inch orange and blue conduit? Because someone is running that stuff all over the county around here, It doesn't have anything in it right now, but it's all dug in under the ground, and is ready for a cable of some sorts to be put in it, though. Your remotes only have T1 ran to them? That's just a copper line, right? I've never seen a T1 line, and don't know much about it, other than it comes in 64k channels for upstream and downstream. Are these channels individual wires? Or? Almost all of the remotes around here have fiber ran to them, some of the fiber is "small" but it's fiber none the less.

And I agree, I'll be fine with 3mb for a long time, now just a 768k upload, and everything would be just peachy.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Alltel-plans-on-another-speed-upgrade-14487120 Sun, 02 Oct 2005 09:49:17 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Alltel-plans-on-another-speed-upgrade-14485474

But I could be off on my theory as well. :D ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Alltel-plans-on-another-speed-upgrade-14485350 Sat, 01 Oct 2005 22:27:23 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Alltel-plans-on-another-speed-upgrade-14483560 said by Icon:

5000? I would think it would be more like 8 to 10000 ft. I don't imagine the rep you talked to knew exactly. But you're right....you'll still be "out of the loop" for it, being you live so far out.
I would think that if you have "ultra" then your line would qualify for the new speeds.

As for the Max up/dn speed that our test equipment shows, that is theoretical, and in alot of cases the line won't truly handle that much bandwidth, along with having a noise margin that the modem will train up with. Depends on how far you are from your CO/RT and your SNR and ATT levels.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Alltel-plans-on-another-speed-upgrade-14178721 Sat, 20 Aug 2005 12:11:40 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Alltel-plans-on-another-speed-upgrade-14177019 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Alltel-plans-on-another-speed-upgrade-14177019 Sat, 20 Aug 2005 02:18:30 EDT
