From the Paper:

" T1 high-speed internet access allows a company's network to establish connections to the internet at higher speeds than dial up and is more reliable. It is cheaper to use a T1 trunk than a series of leased telephone lines. T1 access is never shared. A T1 user is guaranteed 99.9% access at maximum speed avoiding the slow downs of dial up access. Since T1 does not use phones lines, you are always connected without tying up the phone line. The use of video conferencing has increased and T1 has met the demand by providing more bandwidth which provides audio and video communication simultaneously and without delays. Businesses are using T1 for both inter and intra-office for cost effective communication. T1 has managed tremendous growth because of its solid technology and reliable service."
