By "data" I meant the data portion of the voice service, not actually computer/internet data.<br>
<br>
So, I have a PRI that is for voice and voice only. I pay for the "data" portion and the "voice" portion separately, but it's still just for voice. I think it's a way for the telco to provide stepped volumes of voice channels. You pay for the whole PRI physically
(data) but can subscribe to logical portions (voice) separately.<br>
<br>
Wondering if anyone (probably Bell Canada customers) have done this.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">So you can split channels between pri-group (pri) and channel-group (data) on a single PRI (I recall voice has to be at bottom channels 1-x and data at top
x-23). With MGCP Cisco didn’t support Fractional PRIs, however I have a large customer who has run this configuration since CallManager 5/6 with USLec (now Paetec) for 6 years with no problems, just can’t call TAC saying it’s broke. We never set the Callmanager
Service Parameter for busy out, but under the Serial interface we did busy out the DSOs being used for Data and removed ccm-manager config (changes require no mgcp/mgcp).</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

Our PRI server is divided into the data portion and voice portion. These voice portions are called PSTN connectivities. My plan is to maintain 2 PRIs at the remote site for failover but only subscribe to the number of PSTN connectivities they use, which should
greatly reduce our costs.<br>
<br>
I'm thinking that because the PSTN connectivities are logical limits imposed by the telco, I won't need to worry about fractional T1 settings and using these out of service service parameters that have been talked about on the list in the past.<br>
<br>
Thoughts?<br>
