 Anyone paying over $450 for a T1 is being ripped off...
 If you are in VA,MD,DC,PA,DE,NJ you can get an integrated 
 VoIP T1 for $300 - $400 and a flat internet t1 for about $400.
 The integrated VoIP T1 is great because it's handed off as an 
 ethernet - no need for a csu/dsu 

Ummm...no.  Maybe if you are in or very near a city you can, but not
everywhere.

You find me a reliable Teir 1 ISP T1 in New Hope, PA for $300 to $400
and I'll give you the amount I save over the next quarter.  NPA-NXX is
215-862.  Good luck.

That sounds almost like Xeno's Paradox there... if you gave away the savings you still be paying the same amount thus half the savings would be...?

Sorry, just had to inject some Friday afternoon humor onto the list.

Seriously though, I was never able to get a T1 for that price anywhere myself until I moved to Orange County, CA.

 So if I understand correctly, a full T1 should be 1.5Mbps full duplex.  And
 it should support 22 SIP Users at once - Right?

Depends on the codec and VOIP technology used and what else is going out over 
the line.With the right technology and conditions, and with the right 
codec, you could easily fit over 130 conversations in that same pipe.

But to keep the discussion short: yes.  22 is perhaps stretching it with ulaw 
but 18-19 is about the right answer.

2005-06-14 Thread Rich Adamson
 You guys have me second guessing my training and experience in this
 area, so;
 
 1. If I am wrong I apologize to the group.
 2. I have been trying for a few minutes to find confirmation either way.
 
 From what I know about the modulation techniques used by DSL (DMT, CAP,
 QAM) it is impossible for the transceiver in the device to transmit and
 receive at the same time (unless there is discreet channels for each
 path and a very good transceiver).
 
 Does anyone have any definitive technical resources confirming that any
 form of xDSL technology can transmit and receive at precisely the same
 time (not interleaved).

I'd have to guess that your past training and experience might have been
based on some specific product where your thoughts might be correct.
Or, someone may have been trying to make a point with some specific
product or chip set that essential suggested at any specific microsecond
in time, the chip set can either send or receive (half duplex), and
there are some that operate that way. But, the majority of current day
quality dsl products, when viewed over a longer period of time then a
microsecond, operate in full duplex mode.

Some exceptions to that are specific products from Net-2-Net that are
oriented around sdsl, etc.

If you truly attempt to transmit and receive data simultanously through
the majority of current day products, you can prove to yourself which
ones operate in full duplex vs half.

 Can anyone provide a more logical explanation of why the outbound
 latency on every DSL modem tested increases with inbound traffic? Even
 at rates well below the maximum data rate, Not the case on a T1. My
 explanation is that the additional latency is due to packet scheduling
 and queuing mechanisms required by the technology.

Someone else already discussed the effects of TCP acknowledgements
impacting full duplex or throughput.  The same is roughtly true with 
many udp sessions (such as sip and iax since asterisk doesn't send a 
packet until after its received a packet).

FWIW, our local telco is now providing 3.0 meg down and 768 up on the
same cable pair that was previously used for 1.5 down and 768 up. They
were using Cisco's dslams, but not sure if they are still in use or
if they've been swapped out. Anyway, they are deploying those speeds
right now with full duplex. Technology moves on. :)

 Correct me if I am wrong.  I can remember installing a T1's with a HDSL

Just because it's two-wire doesn't mean it's not full-duplex.  I have a 
schematic for a circuit that will do (IIRC) 10mbit FULL DUPLEX over one pair 
of wires.  It does so by level-shifting the transmit and receive into 
different voltage ranges.  

While this isn't what HDSL2 is doing, I am certain that HDSL2 is full duplex 
as well.

24*8 = 192+1 = 193 bits sent 8000 times a second = 1544000bps.

Now you don't get to play with the frame bit:

Also home/private access (talking DSL here, not E1/T1!) usually is
overbooked 25:1, whereas business connection are usually between 10:1 and
1:1 rates...

Assuming the 10:1 ratio vs. 25:1, it would mean a company would have to
pay 2,5 times what a customer pays for the ISP to make the same... at 4:1
(another common ratio) that would be 6.25 times as much...

At EUR 75 for a home connection that'd be USD 525 for the business at 4:1
ratio...

I can imagine the home fiber connection will probably be multiplexed to
share a single uplink with x other homes as well, so you'd probably be
looking at similar issues as I mentioned regarding the DSL ...

overcharged for technology that is 100 years old (excluding T1 and other
newer stuff of course) is comepletely old hat for most people... That's
why we are all here using VoIP right!  Besides, they CAN charge it so
they WILL charge it.  Bummer but it is what it is...

So if I understand correctly, a full T1 should be 1.5Mbps full duplex.  And
it should support 22 SIP Users at once - Right?

Telecom has had the world by the short hairs for decades so being
overcharged for technology that is 100 years old (excluding T1 and other
newer stuff of course) is comepletely old hat for most people... That's
why we are all here using VoIP right!  Besides, they CAN charge it so
they WILL charge it.  Bummer but it is what it is...

Anyone paying over $450 for a T1 is being ripped off...
If you are in VA,MD,DC,PA,DE,NJ you can get an integrated VoIP T1 for
$300 - $400 and a flat internet t1 for about $400.
The integrated VoIP T1 is great because it's handed off as an ethernet -
no need for a csu/dsu

Which then presumably leads to higher overselling in the home market
since use is presumed lower.
Also there are often restriction on the line like no Ips given for
servers and no servers allowed.

I doubt they really care if we can afford it persay... I think it is
just a matter of what pricepoint to what feature set.

W








There's also the fact that a lot of companies charge LESS for home
access than for a business, under the assumption that the business will
utilize it more, and/or can afford the higher price.

Probably closer to 20 depending on setup/teardown frequency. This is
only if the line is dedicated VoIP, no other data traffic. Assuming 64k
RTP like g.711

You have to decide how much data and how much voip and define rules on
your router (traffic shaping or priority queuing, etc.) to enforce QoS.

You are aware that DSL (even SDSL) is half duplex and a T1 is full
duplex, right?

1.5m sdsl can only do 768 sustained duplex, or 1.5 out 0 in, or 0 out
1.5 in. a T1 will do 1.5 in and 1.5 out sustained.

This is due to a separate transmit and receive path on a t1 and a shared
path on sdsl.

The s in sdsl means symmetrical, not duplex, that is that the signaling
rate is the same in either direction, but still half duplex.

For VoIP a t1 is worth double what a 1.5 sdsl is because of the duplex
nature of the traffic, unlike most internet that is download-centric.

SDSL has symmetrical speeds and full duplex communications.
Of the widely deployed lan/wan technologies, the only one I know of that is 
half-duplex is 802.11{b,g}.

The only technical difference between a T1 and SDSL is how it's physically 
delivered to the customer, what usually happens is that a T1 is not oversold, 
while an SDSL is oversold anywhere from 8:1 to 3:1.

ADSL is full duplex as well, if you don't know how to do QOS then it will feel 
like it's half duplex, but it's not. I have 1000/320 ADSL that I can use full 
bandwidth both ways.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Should I choose DSL @ 1.5 or a full T1?

2005-06-13 Thread Wiley Siler
Are you sure?  Everything I have seen says SDSL = Full Duplex.
That being achieved by dropping the pair that provided voice and using
it for signalling.

Where ADSL utilizes unoccupied frequencies and averts conflict with
analog voice frequencies, SDSL takes over the whole line. SDSL
eliminates analog voice capabilities in favor of full-duplex data
transmission. No splitter, no analog voice-nothing but data. As a decent
alternative to T1, SDSL has gotten a fair amount of attention from
Competitive Local Exchange Carriers.

http://www.isp-select.com/SDSL.htm

Wiley

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Should I choose DSL @ 1.5 or a full T1?

2005-06-13 Thread Nir Simionovich

Damon,

 I have no idea where you are getting your information from, but what 
you said makes no sense.
DSL based lines, be it ADSL or SDSL, are based upon a connection 
technology in the ATM
family. As a result, the upstream and downstream of the connection can 
be controlled seperately.
If someone offers you a 1.5 SDSL connection, it doesn't actually mean 
that you have 2x768kbps,
it may actually mean that you have 2x1.5Mbps. However, that speed is 
only towards your internet
provider, what you get beyond that point would be bound to your ISP's 
SLA and contract.


 Now, E1 and T1 lines are based upon a channel based connection, which 
means you get a line
with X number of data lines and a single control/signalling line. On T1 
it means that you have 23
lines dedicated for Voice/Data (each is 64kbps) and a single signaling 
line (64kbps). Now, lets
do a little math (23+1)*64 = 1536kbps = 1.536Mbps, hence the speed for a 
single T1 circuit.
Now, if you have a T1 installed, and you are currently using 512kbps of 
upload, it means that you
are physically using 8 lines out of the 23 data lines for uploading. You 
can then use the rest to what
ever purpose you want, but while those lines are in play, you won't be 
upload another 512kbps on
the same lines. The reason for that is that each of these lines operates 
on a seperate Time Slot
within the physical layer. Once a Time Slot is taken for a specific data 
flow, it can't be used for another

data flow.

 This actually means that a T1 will give you a shared 1.5Mbps towards 
your ISP, with speed that
vary on the upload and download, according to your usage. While when 
using a DSL, your quality
of service for the connection to the ISP is described by the policy of 
connection. In many countries
(eg: Israel, Turkey, China, UK), DSL lines are actually ADSL lines, 
where the downstream is around
1.5Mbps while the uplink is around 128kbps (just enough to do a little 
VoIP). Last time I was in the
UK, about 4 weeks ago, I noticed they are now selling 8Mbps ADSL 
connection to your house,

however, the uplink is 512kbps.

 I would suggest that you get all the information from your providers 
regarding the type of services

rendered on the SDSL line, and make sure that it's the right one for you.

That is correct in the genereal idea, however, as xDSL technologies are 
switched technologies, unlike
cable (DOCSIS) technologies, the fact that you are overloaded 8:1 or 3:1 
will not really matter. As long

as your equipment supports QoS correctly, you shouldn't have a problem.

like it's half duplex, but it's not. I have 1000/320 ADSL that I can use full

ADSL appears to be half-duplex only due to the fact that most ISP's 
misconfigure the modems and routers.
As a rule of thumb, the modem/router can be re-configured to utilize 
both channels to the fullest, but again, this
must rely on the fact that your ISP's equipment supports QoS at the 
switch level correctly.

The s in sdsl means symmetrical, not duplex, that is that the signaling
rate is the same in either direction, but still half duplex.

For VoIP a t1 is worth double what a 1.5 sdsl is because of the duplex

BTW - The Speakeasy SDSL connection I originally posted about is
delivered via Covad.

The SLA (some of it at least)

Average Network Delivery and Delay2 - Further proof that Covad has
confidence in the performance of our network. 
Delivery - 99.9% successful delivery of all data packets sent from your
location over the Covad network, or you will be eligible for a credit of
up to 10% of your monthly service fee. 

Delay - 110 millisecond average for the round trip of a message sent
from your location to a test point on the Covad network, or you will be
eligible for a credit of up to 10% of your monthly service fee. 

SLA can be found here...
http://www.covad.com/products/access/telespeed/details.shtml#sla

Being only 4000 feet from the Central Office, this works very well for
me.
I have not been able to figure if QoS is possible yet.
Haven't figured out the examples from the Wiki for QoS via HFB (I think)
and no answer from techs yet.

Of the widely deployed lan/wan technologies, the only one I know of

802.11b/g are standards used in wireless (Wi-Fi) connections, there is
no relation to the symetrics or asymetrics of the actual physical line.

The only technical difference between a T1 and SDSL is how it's 
physically delivered to the customer, what usually happens is that a T1

is not oversold, while an SDSL is oversold anywhere from 8:1 to 3:1.
  

That is correct in the genereal idea, however, as xDSL technologies are
switched technologies, unlike cable (DOCSIS) technologies, the fact that
you are overloaded 8:1 or 3:1 will not really matter. As long as your
equipment supports QoS correctly, you shouldn't have a problem.

ADSL is full duplex as well, if you don't know how to do QOS then it 
will feel like it's half duplex, but it's not. I have 1000/320 ADSL 
that I can use full bandwidth both ways.
  

ADSL appears to be half-duplex only due to the fact that most ISP's
misconfigure the modems and routers.
As a rule of thumb, the modem/router can be re-configured to utilize
both channels to the fullest, but again, this must rely on the fact that
your ISP's equipment supports QoS at the switch level correctly.

Not really true about T1 description. When you apply for T1, you need tell
vendor if it's channelized or non-ch. If you are going to use it for 1.5M

T1 is T1. How you use the DS0s delivered across it is up to you. You can
mux them out to POTS lines, use them all for data or mix it up and run
voice and data over the same T1. Telco vendors don't care what you do
with it, unless it's terminating for data/voice in their equipment.

Even when you use all 24 channels for data, they still function as 24
distinct DS0 channels as far as timing is concerned. Unlike OC-nc
circuits (Where you save some overhead for the sake of being unable to
channelize the STS channels) , there is no overhead variation when
channelizing a DS-1 versus using a full DS-1 for data.

OK,

You guys have me second guessing my training and experience in this
area, so;

1. If I am wrong I apologize to the group.
2. I have been trying for a few minutes to find confirmation either way.

From what I know about the modulation techniques used by DSL (DMT, CAP,
QAM) it is impossible for the transceiver in the device to transmit and
receive at the same time (unless there is discreet channels for each
path and a very good transceiver).

Does anyone have any definitive technical resources confirming that any
form of xDSL technology can transmit and receive at precisely the same
time (not interleaved).

Can anyone provide a more logical explanation of why the outbound
latency on every DSL modem tested increases with inbound traffic? Even
at rates well below the maximum data rate, Not the case on a T1. My
explanation is that the additional latency is due to packet scheduling
and queuing mechanisms required by the technology.

Maybe I will learn something this evening.

2005-06-13 Thread Damon Estep
 Subscriber Line 2 was designed to transport T1
signaling at 1.544 Mb/s over a single copper pair. HDSL2 uses
overlapped phase Trellis-code interlocked spectrum (OPTIS).

IDSL
ISDN based DSL developed originally by Ascend Communications. IDSL
uses 2B1Q line coding and typically supports data transfer rates of
128 Kb/s. Many end users have had to suffice with IDSL service
when full speed ADSL was not available in their area. This
technology is similar to ISDN, but uses the full bandwidth of two
64 Kb/s bearer channels plus one 16 Kb/s delta channel.

MDSL
Usually this stands for multi-rate Digital Subscriber Line (MDSL).
It depends on the context of the acronym as to its meaning. It is
either a proprietary scheme for SDSL or simply a generic
alternative to the more common ADSL name. In the former case, you
may see the acronym MSDSL. There is also another proprietary scheme
which stands for medium-bit-rate DSL. Confused yet?

RADSL
Rate Adaptive Digital Subscriber Line (RADSL) is any rate adaptive
xDSL modem, but may specifically refer to a proprietary modulation
standard designed by Globespan Semiconductor. It uses carrierless
amplitude and phase modulation (CAP). T1.413 standard DMT modems
are also technically RADSL, but generally not referred to as such.
The uplink rate depends on the downlink rate, which is a function
of line conditions and signal to noise ratio (SNR).

SDSL
Symmetric Digital Subscriber Line (SDSL) is a 2-wire implementation
of HDSL. Supports T1/E1 on a single pair to a distance of
11,000 ft. The name has become more generic over time to refer to
symmetric service at a variety of rates over a single loop.

UDSL
Universal DSL. See G.lite.

VDSL
Very High Bit-rate Digital Subscriber Line (VDSL) is proposed for 
shorter local loops, perhaps up to 3000 ft. Data rates exceed 10
Mb/s.

That is usually due to the TCP acks getting delayed in transit, making the 
other end wait to send the next packets. On a symmetrical circuit you 
don't see it as much, but the asymmetry on ADSL makes it more apparent.

prem in two wires.  I think they called this fast half-duplex.

 Not really true about T1 description. When you apply for T1, you need

T1 is T1. How you use the DS0s delivered across it is up to you. You can
mux them out to POTS lines, use them all for data or mix it up and run
voice and data over the same T1. Telco vendors don't care what you do
with it, unless it's terminating for data/voice in their equipment.

Even when you use all 24 channels for data, they still function as 24
distinct DS0 channels as far as timing is concerned. Unlike OC-nc
circuits (Where you save some overhead for the sake of being unable to
channelize the STS channels) , there is no overhead variation when
channelizing a DS-1 versus using a full DS-1 for data.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Should I choose DSL @ 1.5 or a full T1?

2005-06-11 Thread Joseph
Another alternative is to get another connection in addition to DSL for
example Cable Connection.
That is what we have, our main connection is DSL and we have a backup
Cable connection, if one connection goes down you switch to another.
It had happened to us in a past DSL went down, 10min. and we were on
Cable High Speed.

So price wise it is a good arrangement as well:
DSL 60CAD 
Cable Hight Speed (7MB down / 1Mb up) at 80CAD  
Not to mention the down is limited to restarting your eth0 on your
server and update you DNS to new IP if you are running web-server.

[OT] Why not use both? WAS: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Should I choose DSL @ 1.5 or a full T1?

2005-06-11 Thread Bryce Chidester
Just a thought but, why not leverage both simultaneously and boost  
the overall speed? Clients will only notice a slowdown when one or  
the other goes down, but QOS will usually be better. At least you  
wouldn't be wasting $80/$60 a month on something not used. Even  
better is that no intervention would be necessary - both connections  
were live to begin with so you're simply dropped to 50%.
I looked into doing this myself with WiFi and dialup connections in  
addition to cable, but seeing as my neighbours have cable connects  
and I don't have a dedicated line for dialup (not to mention the  
intolerably slow speeds for even one computer) I haven't implemented  
it. However, I have met quite a few that spread their connects across  
various DSL, cable, T1, and other frame-relays so it certainly is  
doable.

Where are you located?  What CLEC gives you a T-1 for $290?

I have a 1.5Mbps DSL at home--it works find for VoIP until everyone else 
get on (after supper) when the usable bandwidth goes way down.

Read the SLA (Service Level Agreement) on each.  DSL usually doesn't have 
one.  You are buying an oversold connection which might give you the speed 
you are buying.  A full T1 should be 1.5Mbps full duplex.




I found someone offering T1's for $290 a month + Loops or 3 Meg for $561 a

Again, it depends on the company.  From a Tier 1 provider with a good SLA 
it is a good deal.  From an over-subscribed CLEC, probably not.


Tom

FWIW I provisioned a PRI and a DS-1 for $300 each. Don't know if I'm  
getting a break for having a voice and a data circuit broken out from  
one fiber drop, but that's what I'm paying here in Orange County. Also,  
I had a business cable modem before, which was *allegedly* not shared  
for business customers (suspicious) and the throughput was a roller  
coaster, as was the latency. The DS-1 cleared all that up.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Should I choose DSL @ 1.5 or a full T1?

2005-06-10 Thread Rick Baranowski








SLA!



T-1 usually has a Service Level Agreement
so if your T-1 goes down they have to fix it ASAP. DSL usually doesnt
have this. We had this is come up before. We had 1.5 VDSL from Qwest (which has worked
fine for VOIP for us) but we had it go out and it was done for a day. Tried to
explain to them that we use VOIP at the office and our phones where down too, they
didnt seem to care. When we had trouble with a T-1 from
Qwest they where out in 30 min to fix it.



The prices are pretty good but it just
depend how far you are from the CO. Do they include the CSU/DSU?
