Configuring Partial E1 and T1 Lines
Some telephone companies offer an E1 or T1 line that has less than the
maximum number of channels implemented. This is called a Fractional,
Partial, or Subequipped E1 and Subequipped T1.
Example: To reduce near-term costs, you might decide to purchase 15
channels now and implement more later.
