Business Long Distance

If yours is a larger company; for instance, having fifty or more employees or simply doing your day to day business entails a lot of telephone usage, you may want to look into a voice T1 line instead.

A dedicated high speed line with 24 channels for voice or data, T1 is a flexible communications solution. A T1 line can handle somewhere between fifty and a hundred phone lines of average usage, as well as allowing data transfers at speeds of as much as 1.544 megabytes per second.

Much faster than any dial-up or DSL connection, this works well for many companies. If your needs exceed the capacity of a T1 line, there is also the option of going with a T3 line. Remember to keep in mind what your line will be used for when in the market for a new provider; if you need to support large applications or streaming video, some lines may not be up to the task.

If price is the number one consideration of many, reliability comes close. A business long distance service which is unreliable can lose you business and certainly does not make your firm look good. For this reason, you must choose a provider who is reputable and reliable.

A T1 is perhaps the most reliable voice and data connection of all; these connections are monitored by the provider and are often fixed before service is seriously affected! Of course perfect clarity for voice communications is part and parcel of a dedicated connection such as a T1 line. traditional phone lines may be kept as well for extra insurance in the unlikely event of an equipment failure.
