I could be wrong, but this is my understanding. A couple of other factors: If the voice you're talking about is 1/2 the channels of a channelized T1, then you're stuck at 12 channels (x 64k = 768k) for your net connection. If, on the other hand, you're doing voice over IP and you've got a router or some other mechanism doing QoS, that mechanism might be smart enough to do traffic shaping and give your net connection as much bandwidth as it needs until the VOIP application needs it. If nobody is on the phone, you might have nearly all of the T1 for your streaming video.
