Separating a T1

[vanagon2tdi]

I have a T1 setup bewteen my two offices with 2661 routers on both sides and WIC 1T1-DSU cards in each. Using these cards can I chanelize the link? I want to create to separate circuits, one with 500kb and the other with 1mb.

Is this possible with the hardware I am using?

Hi,

AFAIK, this card only supports a single T1 or a fractional T1 - it does not support channelised T1. Therefore, you cannot do what you want with this card. You will need to get a VWIC-1MFT-T1 or a VWIC2-1MFT-T1 card for what you require.

Hope that helps - pls rate the post if it does.

I think what I really meant to say was I want a fractional T1, that being two circuits. Can I do this with this card? If I use a VWIC, that will break it up into lines, and that is not what I want.

A fractional T1 is a sub-T1 circuit. Usually, cards that only support fractional T1 will only let you configure one such fractional T1 on a port - the card you have is one such card. A channelised T1 card, on the other hand, will let you configure multiple "fractional T1" circuits on the same port. The VWIC will let you do that - on a single physical port.

Hope that helps - pls rate the post if it does.

Thanks, that's what I needed to hear.

Cheers!
