Integrated Voice and Data T-1 line

 

 

Comprised of 24 (64Kbps) channels, T1 lines can be used for multiple applications. 

Commonly referred to as an integrated T1 or channelized T1, this highly flexible circuit is designed for businesses that need to run multiple services over the same line. 

Common applications for integrated service include local phone service/dedicated long 

distance, VOIP SIP trunks and Internet or MPLS.

Integrated T-1's are very flexible. They are meant to fit a wide range of customer needs. For example, a company that has 5 lines and needs dedicated bandwidth to the 

Internet can bundle in both over one T-1, or a company that has 12 PRI trunks and 

needs to connect multiple offices via MPLS could also use an Integrated T-1. 

 

Integrated T-1 formula (can your company benefit from a integrated T-1) 

 

1 Phone line / Trunk /PRI Trunk (Channel) = 64 KBPS 

1 Data Channel = 64 KBPS 

 

 

1 SIP Trunk (G.723.1 Protocol) = 16kbps 

1 SIP Trunk (G.711 Protocol)= 64kbps + 6-21Kbps header 

1 SIP Trunk (G.729 Protocal) = 8Kbps + 10kbps for header 

 

(Benefit) Saves money using two types of service. An Integrated T-1 is often cheaper 

then buying a full voice T-1 and a fraction Internet T-1 or DSL.
