It is just bad design practice to get into to have PRIs from different<br>
provider on the same clocking domain. You might be able to get away with it,<br>
but really you are just putting the end-customer in a bad spot down the<br>
road.<br>

<br>
I've seen this dozens of times. Most people probably don't even realize<br>
they have a problem. Some may even have two providers that have managed
to<br>
be on the same clocking domain. I've even seen some people with providers<br>
that were willing to be the slave because the provider is SIP on the other<br>
side of the router.<br>
<br>
The only way to provide two different voice clocking domains is by having<br>
two separate groups of DSPs - this means HDV cards.<br>
<br>
If you have one PRI for failover or that is not used until the first is<br>
filled, you can probably get away with slips. The basic rule I've gone by<br>
is: if you don't need to fax or modem over the T1, you're probably
alright<br>
with slips if it's not your primary line. There are chances for voice<br>
quality, it all depends. It could be a cell-phone like quality issue you<br>
probably won't notice, or distinct chirps on the line that can be annoying.<br>
