With channelized T1, for example, if 12 of your 24 channels are allocated to local phone service, and the other 12 channels (768 k) are allocated to internet data, then 12 channels will not be available on the data side, regardless of whether one or twelve of the phone lines are in use. With this example, your data speed can never exceed 768 k, regardless of how many phones are, or are not, in use. Some now consider this a waste of bandwidth. With dynamic integrated, all bandwidth is initially assigned to the data side, and then used for phones only when needed. With dynamic integrated service, phones get the priority to ensure high quality voice traffic, but when the phones are not in use, the bandwidth is returned to the data side in real time. As an example, with a full dynamic integrated T1, 1540 k (t1 bandwidth) is assigned to the data side. If one phone is being used, then subtract 64 K (varies) from the 1540 k, if two phones are being used, subtract 128 k, and so on. When the user hangs up the phone that bandwidth is automatically returned to the data side. With dynamic integrated, you will always have 1.54 mbps (megabits per second) when phones are not in use. One integrated T1 line, depending on availability in your area, can bundle any combination of the following applications: local telephone service, long distance, incoming toll free, internet, and/or VoIP. Integrated T1 is very popular with small and medium sized businesses that do not want to pay for separate T1 circuits for each of these applications. Other advantages of integrated T1 can include: one provider, one easy to read bill and one point of contact for all of the above mentioned services, flexibility in keeping your existing phone numbers, much lower costs than if the above mentioned applications are purchased individually, and the flexibility to evolve as your business grows. Integrated T1 is occasionally confused with fractional t1. In actuality, one integrated T1 line can include the equivalent of multiple fractional T1 services. Integrated T1 can, however, be provided in smaller bandwidths, in the form of fractional integrated T1.
