326.0. "DECBrouter support for Fractional T1.." by TOOHOT::RWILSON (Once around isn't always enough) Tue Aug 03 1993 12:15

    
    Does the DECbrouter 90 support fractional T1 ?????. I can't find any
    reference to this in the bits of documentation I have at my disposal.
    
    Thanks in advance..

326.1Probably ok.CSC32::B_GOODWINTue Aug 03 1993 14:0913
Ray,

You might want to try the DECbrouter90 conference:

kali::dewbr

But, I guess it depends on what you mean by Fractional T1. In other words, you
have a T1 mux and your want to just take a piece of that bandwidth and distribute
it to serveral devices, ie: have twenty-four 56kb links being muxed into a T1.
This shouldn't be a problem, this what the phone company does when you order
a 56kb line, they just take 24 of them and make a T1 line.

    Brad,
    
    Thanks for the respoe. My initial reaction was that it should work,
    however, I thought I would ask in any case. I will also check the other
    conference you mentioned. 
    
    All of a sudden I'm becoming the Router person for the Southwest.
    
    Thanks again,

326.3True fractional T1 supportDPDMAI::DAVIESMark, SCA Area Network ConsultantFri Jul 01 1994 14:5213
    How about true fractional T1 support?  This being where you would
    connect a T1 circuit to the DB90 and then tell it that it should use
    Channels 3,4,88,11 to get its 256Kbps circuit.
    
    Codex has such an offering for its bridges (says my customer).  He is
    just looking for a less expensive way to hook up.  He says that it
    costs more to strip off a specified number of channels as compared to
    having true support inside the router/bridge/whatever.
    
    Thanks,
