T1 phone service and internet access are crucial to businesses, especially those that have to use multiple phone lines and computer networks. T-1 digital communication lines are bought from telecom companies. These lines provide a bandwidth of 1.544 megabits per second for transmitting two way digital communications in private business networks, and for transmitting two way digital communications with internet access service providers. It makes good business sense to shop for T1 phone lines, phone service and internet access of the highest quality at the lowest cost. After all, cheap phone service will be useless with no quality control. You may end up always losing your dial tone.

When looking for high quality T1 phone service and internet access, you should find out if the service provider is licensed as a telecom company in your state. It should also be a Registered Communications Distribution Designer (RCDD) as certified by the Building Industry Consulting Service International, Inc. (BICSI) which is the premier association of Information Transport Systems (ITS) industry telecommunications consultants.

A Registered Communications Distribution Designer (RCDD) is required to abide by the BICSI Code of Ethics and the BICSI RCDD Standards of Conduct which both specify only the highest levels of professional and ethical behavior in the provision of ITS products and services. Any telecom company’s offer of cheap phone service and cheap internet access would only be worth considering if it is state licensed and RCDD certified by the BICSI.

Despite the licenses and certifications, a business should also look at the actual capabilities of a telecom company. It should be able to install, maintain, repair and move the most reputable brands of phone and voice mail systems and their special applications like, for example, Call Accounting and Automatic Call Distribution (ACD). The telecom company should be flexible enough to be able to service small establishments with a few phones and large scale call centers with phone extensions that number hundreds.

You should find a telecom company that is an expert in the design and implementation of solutions for Voice IP or VoIP technology based on your company’s particular requirements and needs. It should be able to use VoIP technology to establish IP connections even between physically separate offices; integrate your business phones with your business computers; establish the management of business phone calls to your various offices from a central location; and implement various types of call forwarding. A telecom company should also be in good standing with various VoIP carriers so that it can negotiate the most advantageous prices for you.

The installation and maintenance of fiber optic cabling, structured cabling, phone cabling and computer Ethernet cabling and jacks are likewise important capabilities you should require from your telecom company. Fiber optic cabling will be necessary if your business needs to establish connections between different buildings, or across distances that can not be spanned by copper cabling.

A company that meets these requirements in Tampa, FL is Tribute Telecom, LLC. It has been licensed in Florida for over 20 years and is also RCDD certified with the BICSI.
