Fractional T1 is a portion of a T1 line. To configure fractional T1 on a channelized T3 interface, you assign a range of DS0 timeslots to a T1 channel and subchannel. A subchannel is group of timeslots. Subchannel numbers range from 1–24 and do not necessarily correspond to DS0 timeslots. The subchannel number identifies a fractional T1 channel.
For example, you might make the assignments for subchannels 1–6 as listed in Table 5.

To configure the subchannels listed in Table 5, use the following command to specify the T3 controller in chassis slot 0, port 1.
- host1(config)#controller t3 0/1
Then assign the timeslots to channel 1, subchannel 1.
- host1(config-controll)#t1 1/1 timeslots 1-4,10,22-24
- host1(config-controll)#t1 1/2 timeslots 5-6
- host1(config-controll)#t1 1/3 timeslots 7-9
- host1(config-controll)#t1 1/4 timeslots 11
- host1(config-controll)#t1 1/5 timeslots 12-15,20-21
- host1(config-controll)#t1 1/6 timeslots 16-19
