T1 is at layer one and generally needs a layer two protocol to function in a
router environment. The two most popular layer two protocols are PPP and
Frame Relay.
Point-to-Point T1s cost more since you need to pay for a connection of this
bandwidth from point A to point B. This bandwidth is "always on". Frame
Relay goes from Point A to the Frame switch which has a high bandwidth and
the ability to switch the traffic from frame switch to frame switch until it
reaches the destination. This is a shared backbone of bandwidth.
