DS1 prices are determined by many factors. These include geographic location, bandwidth requirements, type of DS1 (DS1 is also commonly referred to as T1), and market conditions.

DS1 Prices Definition Continued.

For example, if a company is located in a remote location many miles from the nearest POP, the cost to provide DS1 service to that location will be much higher than it would be for a company located within a few miles of the POP. Regarding bandwidth and type of DS1, DS1 lines come in many forms depending on the application and bandwidth needs of your business. These include: full DS1 , fractional, burstable, integrated, channelized, point-to-point, data (internet), voice (telephone), dynamic integrated, PRI, Virtual Private Network (VPN), Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), and frame relay. The cost each provider will charge to provide these services is often heavily influenced by perceived competition or lack of competition. The pricing factor which you have the most control over is how broad a market of providers from which you can order your service. Do you have more than one provider for price comparisons? How many providers offer the service which you need, to your address? How much competition does your provider perceive that it must overcome to win your business?

VoIP and the Importance of QoS

Written by: Dennis Green - Jul 31, 2010

VoIP (voice over internet protocol) services are becoming increasingly available as tier 1 providers are now embracing this technology to improve their voice offerings. Quotes vary depending on the type of VoIP you are seeking. One of the most important elements related to VoIP pricing relates to quality of service (QoS). There are several levels of QoS. To ensure ideal voice quality with VoIP, QoS must be present at every junction throughout the service provider’s network, until the call reaches the public switched telephone network (PSTN). This ensures that voice packets receive priority over other types of data. Where QoS is not present, voice packets have no priority over other forms of data. This often results in latency and jitter. Latency and jitter negatively impact voice quality. Most tier 1 providers can now ensure QoS throughout their systems. This costs money however, thus tier 1 VoIP quotes are often a bit higher priced then VoIP services which utilize the public internet. Internet VoIP can often offer the many valuable features sought by end users, and lower phone costs, such as $45 per month for unlimited long distance service to the continental US and Canada. However, QoS cannot be assured across the public internet. So although an end user can control the QoS throughout their local network, once voice packets reach the internet, QoS can no longer be assured, so voice quality is inconsistent. If call quality with your customers is mission critical to your business, it is advised that whenever possible, obtain a VoIP service which is provided by the same provider that is providing the bandwidth. Then as an extra precaution, it would be wise to require the provider to confirm that they provide and control QoS throughout their system, until each call is transferred to the PSTN.
