Discover The Benefits Of The T3 Voice Service
T3 is the most popular variant of T carriers which has emerged from the stable of Bell Research Laboratory. It is based on Ethernet cable connection and is primarily found within the premises of an office. It is connected to a substantially faster SONET when it leaves the building.
It requires a sizeable investment to put the necessary hardware in place for a T3 connection. Further, it requires at least two to two and a half month’s serious labor by the service providers to set up a properly functional T3 connection.
So, it is obvious that business houses will think very hard before opting for one. But one look at the capabilities of the T3 line will dissolve all doubts in thin air!
An ordinary phone line can support either a voice call or a data transfer at any one point of time. The speed is extremely slow (as all users of dial up internet connections must have observed) and the interruptions, noises and outages are all too known to every user and do not merit a repetition over here.
In comparison, a T1 line has almost sixty times more speed and the voice clarity is so good that there is no scope of comparison between an ordinary telephone line and a T1 connection!
Moreover, a single T1 line has 24 channels, which in effect means that it can support 24 simultaneous sets of conversations and if there are any idle channels they can automatically be used for transporting packets of data to and from the server of the internet service provider.
Various observations and researches done on real life usage has come to the conclusion that a 24 channel T1 connection can very efficiently cater to an office of 100-150 employees.
They will never face any problem either while phoning up somebody within or outside the office or while browsing the net or downloading something from it. So, complete high speed connectivity with a 0.01% outage is what a subscriber gets when he takes up a T1 connection.
Now imagine a scenario where you can get 672 channels of communication from a single connection!
Yes, that is exactly what you could get if you sign up for a T3 connection. It means that approximately 4000 sets of simultaneous communications can be carried on at a single point of time from a single T3 connection, and this includes both - T3 voice communication and T3 internet connectivity!
In this age of thriving e-commerce it opens up the floodgates of almost limitless interactions with existing and potential customers. And, who does not know, the essence of good marketing is nothing but excellent communication, not only before and during sale but after sale also.
The obvious benefits of a T3 connection are so much that they very easily more than offset the costs involved. This is the reason why this has become such an overwhelming success in the world of connectivity.
