T1 Over IP Ethernet Benefits
• Transparent leased and private line services
over less expensive IP and Ethernet networks |
• Operating expenses are minimized by leveraging the
efficiencies and ubiquity of IP, Ethernet and MPLS |
• Protects investment in traditional telephony and TDM equipment. |
• Ethernet, IP and MPLS infrastructures are inexpensive, fast to
provision and scalable.
|
• Disaster recovery for T1 circuits with 1+1 and 1:1 redundancy. |
• Easy installation with IP-based management and carrier grade diagnostics. |

T1
Private Line Services over IP |
Multi-Site Enterprises, Cellular Service Providers, Education Districts, Universities, National, State and Local Government, and Municipalities incur significant recurring monthly costs for rigid-bandwidth leased lines used only for the interconnection of PBXs and Telecom switches.
The IP•Tube G4 T1 provides organizations with the ability to interconnect their existing phone systems over flexible bandwidth lines that are used to carry data, voice, and video. The Voice Only Leased Line Toll charges assessed by long distance and local carriers are eliminated or dramatically reduced by transporting voice traffic across LANs and WANs. |
LANs
The most compelling option for the interconnection of T1 based systems
is when it can be accomplished over a Local Area Network. The deployment
of Fiber based LANS such as Gigabit Ethernet, provides
organizations with high performance and high quality bandwidth that
is especially well suited for the interconnection of PBXs and Telecom
Switches. |
WANs
Wide Area Networks that have sufficient bandwidth and Quality
of Service provisioning result in very significant cost savings
especially for Multinational Corporations. The IP•Tube DLT1-C
with loss less data compression, detects idle and redundant data
within each voice circuit resulting in a 56 to 1 bandwidth savings.
WAN bandwidth is not consumed by silence or redundant samples. |
T1 Over Wireless Ethernet |
Interconnection of T1 based data communication systems over wireless as a primary or back up connection is a major application of the IPTube.
For over eight years the IPTube has proven itself around the world as an effective method for using Commercial Off the Shelf Wireless Ethernet Bridges to interconnect T1 circuits.
The IPTube’s Assured Delivery Protocol has the sophistication required for solid performance across a wide range of wireless connections.
The use of parallel Wireless Ethernet links minimizes the latency and Radio’s packet processing requirment.
Note: Parallel Application requires Ethernet Switch Option.
Connecting phone systems across a wireless Ethernet connection has a return on investment that is measured in weeks. Eliminating the wired connection for the T1 based communication equipment is made possible with the IPTube’s T1 Over Ethernet capability.

Cellular
Base Station Backhaul |
| IP•Tube G4 T1s provide transparent interconnection of Base Stations, Base Station Controllers and Mobile Switching Centers over IP Ethernet packet-switched networks.
Cellular service providers save substantially by converting to a packet switch network. The Lossless Data compression option, which is especially well suited to Cellular communication links, minimizes the bandwidth required to interconnect.
Cellular phone service providers are able to save substantially by converting to a packet switch network from circuit based TDM leased lines. The Loss Less Data compression option provides a 56 to 1 compression, which minimizes the bandwidth required to interconnect, is especially well suited to Cellular communication links.
Engage's first deployment of the IPTubeT1, in the Spring of 2000, was for an international interconnection of a Cellular Base Station to a Base Station Controller.
The SuperTube Option reduces the overhead and packet frequency while lowering latency which makes cell backhaul a possiblity over Wired and Wireless connecitons.
Note: The Ethernet Switch Option has the sophistication to support Ethernet Native Base Station applications with QOS and rate limiting.

Broadband Service Providers |
Companies, that are able to provide IP Ethernet access networks
generate new revenue by offering traditional T1 leased line and
private line services, such as:
Cable Operators
Cable operators connect traditional T1 leased line and private
line services over their hybrid fiber coax (HFC) cable networks.
HFC Cable network latency typically requires echo cancellation.
Metropolitan Area Networks
Metropolitan carriers with IP or Ethernet access networks
deliver traditional leased line and private line services.
Utilities
Utilities generate new revenue by offering traditional T1
leased line and private line services over their fiber or power
line networks.

- Incumbent
Carriers
- Telcos reduce costs by delivering profitable leased and private
line services over their flexible Ethernet infrastructures.

| CLEC
PBX Back Haul
The IP•Tube DLT1-Ecan provides CLECs with a way to back
haul T1 DS0s from a customer’s phone systems over their
Internet connection. The back hauled DS0s are connected to the
CLECs phone switch for connection to the Public Switched Telephone
Networks. Local Exchange Carriers are able to offer an economical
alternative to the local Phone Company. |
|
International Toll Bypass
The IP•Tube T1’s most dramatic cost savings is when
it is used for the international interconnections of TDM based
telecommunication equipment. The IP•Tube E1 is interoperable
with the European TDM standard E1. |
