Voice T1 pricing allows you to regain control of your local
or long distance voice call costs. Voice T1 connections
could range from $50 to $300 on average per month depending on
your location and the number of T1 providers in your area.
Other factors that come into the T1 pricing equation is your
proximity to the closest network connection point and what
length of contract you are prepared to commit to. If you
are based in a remote location compared to the metro area of
Los Angeles you will clearly have a longer connection to your
local network, with connection prices reflecting this.
Prior to selecting which Voice T1 provider and product, you
select you should consider what current and future usage
patterns your organisation has or requires.
Local and long distance T1 voice lines are connected at
different points on your provider’s network, with long distance
T1 lines likely to bypass your local exchange
completely.
If the bulk of your calls are local this is clearly not the
ideal solution as you will not be able to benefit from free
local calls. If the bulk of your calls are long distance
you are less likely to obtain the price benefits of free local
calls so you will need a long distance T1 line for voice.
If your business regularly spends in excess of $1500 per
month on long distance calls, the pricing of voice T1 lines can
become very attractive providing you significant cost
savings. You may find your organisation does not require
the full bandwidth of a T1 line, or would benefit from
splitting the line into a mixture of voice and data.
There are other options available on T1
lines as well and you may benefit from the pricing of
installations that have capped data rates, or offer bursts of
bandwidth as and when you require it, without committing to the
full T1 bandwidth.
Providers may offer you different billing increments, down
to per second call charges and with high usage even 4 digit
rounding may impact your pricing.
With so many options and configurations available you will
get the maximum price savings by using the services of an
expert that can compare voice t1 offerings across multiple
providers and ensure that the best service is selected based in
your requirements.
