Channelized T1 and E1 Interface Overview

Channelization enables routers to provide IP services to users with different access speeds and bandwidth requirements. Users share an interface that has been divided into discrete time slots, by transmitting in only their own time slot. A single channelized T1 or E1 interface can be configured into the following numbers of DS0 time slots:

• T1 interface—Up to 24 DS0 time slots (channels 1 through 24)
• E1 interface—Up to 32 DS0 time slots (channels 1 through 32)

You cannot configure the channelized T1 or E1 PIM through a J-Web Quick Configuration page.

You can aggregate the channels on a channelized interface into bundles called channel groups to aggregate customer traffic.
