Check with you local carriers to see if they can provide you with ATM IMA
service.
This is pretty neat. Cisco and other vendors have products which allow you
to take in ATM lines in increments of 1.54 mbs ( T1 ). These are ATM
circuits. For a Cisco 26xx router or above, you can purchase ATM IMA cards
with 4 or 8 port capacity, meaning up to 12 mbs total bandwidth. As you add
T1's the IMA multiplexes those into one fat pipe.
The nice thing is this can grow with you.
As with everything else in the data comm world, YMMV

Subject: Sorta OT: More than T1, less than T3...
Ok..given a situation where you need more than T1 Internet connectivity
(say 10Mb), but can't spring for a T3, how do you resolve the issue? Do
you buy multiple T1's and multiplex them? If so, I assume that this
requires cooperation with the ISP to de-mux on their site. What Cisco
equipment has proven reliable for this? Is there a third-party solution
that will take Cisco HSSI output into a bunch of multi-plexed T1s? Is
there a solution that I'm overlooking?
Thanks,
Craig
