<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=515532915-30042007><FONT face=Tahoma
size=2>I partially disagree. A lot of new PRIs are provisioned over some
sort of fiber mux in many areas these days that at least gets it close, if not
completely run up to, the demarc point. This provides a different path
over what many 1MBs are still provisioned over. Also many telco's
provision 1MBs from different equipment in the CO than PRIs. I have
experienced many situations where T1s are dropped but analog lines remain in
service. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=515532915-30042007><FONT face=Tahoma
size=2>That being said, I've also seen my share of the opposite where
everything (including fiber lines) are taken out by accident. A better
bet is to talk to your carrier about some kind of path diversity for your
existing PRIs, or if unavailable from a single carrier, seek a second PRI from
a different carrier that may be able to offer it. This all typically
costs money or time, as a second carrier/CLEC by default will tend to
provision your PRIs over the same loop entrance as the ILEC for the area and
will want to charge additional install $ for different loop
arrangements.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=515532915-30042007><FONT face=Tahoma
size=2>At the end of the day, you need to do some homework to see how your
current T1s are brought in from the CO, and then see what alternatives paths
(T1 or analog) might exist. Good luck.</FONT></SPAN></DIV><BR>

a couple of analog lines for 911 service which will go into the same router

against single point of failure of the PRI card. But in the end, if the router
