Fractional DS3, often referred to as fractional T3, is a less expensive alternative to a full DS3. A full DS3 circuit transmits data at a rate of 45 megabits per second (mbps). Full DS3 is the equivalent of 28 T1 (1.5 mbps) circuits. Bonded T1 circuits provide bandwidth options from 3 mbps through 12 mbps. Fractional DS3 provides bandwidth options between 5 mbps through 40 mbps. (For more about fractional DS3 please click here)

Coverage Area

Unlike DSL and other broadband technologies that are limited to only densely populated areas, T1 service is available just about anywhere with a phone line. T1, also known as DS1, uses repeaters to boost up the signal strength of the transmission - allowing it to travel up to 50 miles away from the nearest Central Office location.

For companies which need 12 mbps or less, bonded T1 can be the most cost effective option, because it is provided through two pairs of phone lines. DS3, however, requires special wiring at the end user premise, so setup costs are often higher than T1 and bonded T1. The major cost advantage for fractional DS3 is often recognized for circuits which are about 10 mbps, and faster. As bandwidth increases beyond 10 mbps, the price per mbps commonly decreases proportionately. For example, an average price for a tier one T1 now averages about $500. per month. With full DS3, the price per T1 often averages about $200. per month. So although the one time cost of set up for DS3 can be considerably higher than T1 services, the monthly savings for larger bandwidths such as fractional and full DS3 result in significant savings.

 Point-to-Point Compared to MPLS

Written by: Dennis Green - Jan 8, 2009


A point-to-point T1 line is a private 1.54 mbps (megabits per second) circuit between to locations. Point-to-point lines have the reputation of being the most secure data transmission available. With the maturity of MPLS (multiprotocol label switching) technology, improvements in encryption, and the ability of tier 1 providers to maintain entire MPLS networks within their closed system, some now consider MPLS as secure or more secure than point-to-point. For two location networks within a few hundred miles of each other, point-to-point quotes often list a lower price than MPLS. Point-to-point circuits, however, are almost never managed (equipment provided and maintained) by providers. As a result of this, point-to-point quotes almost never include the cost of routers, configuring them and maintaining them. For multiple location networks, MPLS is far more functional, redundant, and less expensive than a network which includes a combination of point-to-point circuits. With point-to-point networks; management, configuration of the routers, and maintenance are the responsibility of the customer. Managed MPLS networks, however, are pretty much turn-key. In most cases, the complete network is setup and maintained by the provider, with very little or no charge, for installation or equipment. Point-to-Point lines are most commonly offered only as T1, T3, or OC circuits. Point to point circuits are not offered for fractional T1, bonded T1 (unless the customer takes the responsibility to bond individual T1 circuits), or fractional DS3. MPLS networks can be comprised of a combination of virtually any bandwidth including fractional T1, bonded T1, or fractional DS3. As dedicated circuits, point-to-point circuits are always connected and are billed at a flat monthly rate. Point-to-Point quotes are commonly higher than internet T1, because point-to-point lines require local loops on each end, plus the distance between each of the two locations. The exception to this would be a situation where both locations share the same point of presence (PoP). When both locations share the same PoP, only one loop is needed. As with all T1 services, maximum bandwidth can be utilized in both directions simultaneously 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Applications which are commonly used with point-to-point include: extremely secure file transfer, voice (telephone), audio and video conferencing, and high quality video broadcast. If a network has more than two locations, multiple simultaneous prioritized applications, any-to-any connectivity is desired, and/or the customer would like a completely managed solution, then MPLS is now commonly the favored option.
