T3 Connection qusetion. If you got it or know anything about it help out.
 

Ok. We're thinking of getting a T3 setup for some of our server needs, however I'm a bit confused as to how it works.

I understand a 45MBps connection can run anywhere from $2k-$15k/month, which is fine, but I'm not sure how the bandwidth is measured. For example, if I wanted say 500 TB/month of transfer, would that be included with the price or do I still have to pay per/GB on top of the monthly charges.

Thanks,
Luc L.

every t1 or t3 I have seen or worked with you are just paying for the speed not the amount of bandwidth you push. I could be wrong if things have changed in the past 3 years

Are you going to put it in your moms house in the basement?

Maybe goto sears and buy a craftsman backup generator?

Better watch out for the LAPD, if you have a hot room they will come busting down your door at 2am.

Seriously. fuckers did it to me.


oh, but it was my house, not my moms.

bitchez

You are paying for 45 mbps up and down.. that is yours to use, all of it.

ok. welcome to ignore mr. dumbass.

a T3 wouldn't even be able to push anywhere near 500 TB of data a month, more like 14 TB

If you buy a full DS3 you get 45Mbps up and down uncapped. You don't pay per GB you pay per Mbps. 1Mbps is approx. 300GB.

excellent. exactly what i was looking for. thanks guys.

in socal i can do the full ds3/oc1 for 2999/mo, send me your address etc i can check your location in ILL.
