Prolynx
Internet offers OC-3. DS-3, 1Mbps increment PVC's over ATM
(up to 43Mbps) IMA T1 and T1 access throughout Colorado's
303/720 and 970 area codes.
We can bring a single
1.544Mbps T1 circuit, or up to 8 bonded T1's to create a
single 12Mbps circuit. We can also bring to you an
ATM PVC from 1Mbps up to 43Mbps as well as full DS-3 and
OC-3 Internet bandwidth connected directly from your
location to our
network.
Be assured
that your T1 or greater circuit will not be bottle
necked at our network. Our network is directly
connected via Ethernet to dual and redundant OC-192
circuits (2 x 9.6Gbps.) Our network can handle
Gigabit (1,000Mbps) access to the Internet.
High
Capacity service pricing varies by
location. Thus there is no way to quote pricing on
this page or via a quick phone call. To acquire a quote
for one of these services we will need to know the
location that you wish to receive service and then
request loop information about that location from the
Telco utility.
In addition
to circuit fees, your bandwidth requirements must be
addressed. Prolynx Internet sells bandwidth.
Each T1 or greater service is unique. The cost for
any service is dependant on how much bandwidth is
utilized and is priced accordingly. The final
monthly cost of T1 or greater service is a combination
of your circuit fee plus our bandwidth fee. Thus
if you are a management company providing a single T1 to
an entire office complex that houses 200 employees you
would expect to pay more than a business person who
requires a T1 at home used for telecommuting or stock
trading.
T1 vs. DSL
Is a T1
faster than DSL? We are asked this question quite
often but this is not a yes or no question. A T1
is a business-grade circuit that delivers 1.544Mbps for
both download and upload. A typical DSL circuit
can provide speeds up to 7Mbps for downloads, if you are
close enough to a Central Office and only deliver up to
1Mbps for upload. There are also different types
of DSL such as ADSL, RADSL, SDSL, VDSL, IDSL, HDSL and
others, all with their own pro's and con's for speed,
reliability and cost. A T1 is 1.544Mbps both up
and down, no matter your distance from a Central Office.
Your T1 will also see a much faster response time when
there is trouble on the line, where DSL is typically a
residential-grade service that will see a 24-hour to
48-hour response when it goes down.
Be assured,
we are not a middle-man. Your Internet access via
T1 or greater will connect directly to our network.
