How long can your business operate without an Internet connection before operations become crippled?
If you answer this question in minutes or seconds, then ISWest Business T1 Internet service should be on your short list of office necessities.
Why do companies trust their T1 to ISWest?
Our business relies on the Internet, just like yours. We understand how important it is that you have an Internet connection every time you need it, so we dedicate ourselves to setting up, maintaining and monitoring your connection so that it's always there for you, which helps your business run smoothly.
Non-Stop Internet: Reliable connections you can count on Without
connectivity, you probably have employees sitting idle because they can't connect
to your remote warehouse, your web-based sales application or some other mission-critical
system that relies on the Internet. In fact, your Internet has become as important
as the phone service or power in your building! With that in mind, ISWest has
set up a Proactive Monitoring System (PASS) to make sure that your T1 line is always
working for you. Our Network Operations Center monitors your T1 connection around
the clock and our technical staff is available day or night, week days or weekends. In the rare event of a problem, we guarantee to have you back online within four hours or less.
Los Angeles and Ventura T1 Service Provider
Better Bandwidth
Although most users would rather not know "how" they travel across the web, network administrators, engineers and information officers can rest easy knowing that ISWest uses Intelligent
Routing Technology to connect and choose between eight major backbone Internet providers. This means that with your business T1 you receive a dedicated line (so you don't share your bandwidth) and the benefit of having ISWest navigate new and faster paths around the Internet for you when traffic gets tricky.
All T1s are not created equal! Don’t be fooled by other offers – “it’s too good to be true” may apply.
In general, T1 connections come in two different flavors: point-to-point and frame relay. A point-to-point circuit, as the name implies, is a dedicated link between two locations. With point-to-point circuits there is equipment dedicated along the path of the circuit to guarantee bandwidth and a high level of service. This means that point-to-point circuits cannot be oversubscribed and are guaranteed 100% of their bandwidth.
By contrast, a frame relay connection is not a dedicated link between two points. It is a dedicated link into what is referred to as a “frame cloud” in which a pool of resources is shared amongst all of the circuits in that cloud, or grouping of circuits. Unlike a point-to-point circuit, frame relay connections can be oversubscribed in the frame cloud and thus cannot guarantee the same level of quality as with a point-to-point. This sharing and oversubscription of resources allows for a lower cost by sacrificing some quality.
Due to the shared nature of frame relay circuits, they can typically “burst” to their full bandwidth level but cannot always sustain it. So downloading a large file, or sending a large email, might allow one to use the full 1.544 mbps of bandwidth but it may not be able to sustain it for a long period of time. In addition, because frame relay circuits share a pool of resources there may also be larger amount of variance in latency, jitter, and packet loss.
For general internet use the differences may not always be noticed; however, for mission critical applications such as VoIP, video conferencing, terminal services, or Citrix these shortcomings become much more apparent. Point-to-point circuits do not allow for oversubscription, and require a dedicated path between both ends (typically, the customer and the ISP), so they can guarantee a higher quality of service over frame relay circuits.
It is important to make a distinction between a T1 (either point-to-point or frame relay) and “T1 speed” which is used as a means of measuring bandwidth. Largely due to popularity and maturity in the market the term T1 is used to not only defines a type of connection, but as a yardstick for measuring the bandwidth on a connection. In the same way one might measure how fast your car goes in miles-per-hour. Many wireless microwave, DSL, and cable connections make the claim to have “T1 speeds” but they are not actually a T1. If a van can go 120 MPH it does not make it a race car. In much the same way, just because there are other solutions capable of reaching those speeds (or greater), it does not mean they are of the same high quality.
