I have client that im specing out an ACS R6 for its perfect for their needs but now they told me that they were thinking about an integrated T1 solution. How well does the ACS handle the new T1 card any problems, bugs etc.

be sure you are clear on what the carrier is delivering. many of the integrated T's here in houston are broken down by a Adtran 616/624. The line portion will be split off onto a 66 block and the data will come off the ethernet port on the adtran. I'm here in town, shoot me an email and we can discuss who they are looking at and so on.

Cbeyond is a new vendor to the Houston area and they use Cisco IAD2420. It, like Adtran, provides an ethernet port for the data and the voice lines are broken out on a 66 block. For all practical purposes, the voice lines will appear to you just like they were straight analog. Like Dan said, be sure you how the vendor will be supplying the service.

We have had good luck with Cbeyond here in Denver. Dan should be a rep with them in Houston, so talk to him about that.

I also sell integrated Ts and do my cross connects for my clients straight off a 66 block, but these people can do it either way
so thats why im checking on the T1 module for the ACS just in case. Plus for GP I'm interested to know if it's a good purchase for the ACS system. Thanks for your help.
