A T1 Line Equals Speed And Reliability

The T1 line is a rather fast connection when you compare it to conventional dial-up or broadband connections. Of course, the argument could be made that a cable connection is faster than a T1 line. When comparing maximum speeds, that may be right but there is a difference. The difference of course is that thousands of people could be using your cable connection simultaneously, and that can cause major slowdowns.

T1 lines are capable of supporting multiple users within the same network, browsing, watching videos, sending e-mail, and other internet related actions at the same time without a noticeable drop in speed. Essentially, it is the ultimate office connection and many people have stated that by replacing their standard office connection with a T1 line they have experienced a significant increase in productivity, which is definitely something not to be ignored.

Another great thing you will notice about a T1 line is that it is reliable. It is in fact more reliable than your standard cable connection, and it has a number of other benefits. While you do pay a premium for T1 compared to DSL or cable connections, you also receive exceptional service. When something goes wrong, the service provider is obligated to quickly resolve any issues. Just make sure the provider's obligations are spelled out clearly in the Service Level Agreement.

Because of the higher cost of T1 services it is very important to shop around for the right service plan from the right service provider. This is where a T1 broker can help. A T1 broker works with many different providers and is able to comparison shop for you, saving you time and money.

In many cases the transition between standard high speed internet and the T1 line can be drastic and even difficult, but once that transition is complete you will experience a performance boost like no other, and you will undoubtedly love the difference. In most cases, once you go with T1 you will never look back at the folly of standard broadband internet.
