Hello,

May i ask what is the max bandwidth that a WIC-T1 V1 card can handle?

 
8 bits per sample x 8000 samples/sec = 64,000 bits/sec

So for data channels (23B +1D), times the 64,000 bits/sec by 24 (24 channels) = 1536k. This is the TRUE throughput, since throughput is referred to as the amount of DATA that you can cram down a pipe.

Many people think that it is 1.544Mbps, but this is technically inaccurate as this accounts for the 8k of framing that is on top of the 1536k. So the routers may talk to each other with a total of 1.544Mbps, but usable circuit size for data packets is still 1536k.
 
Are you sure you have the part number correct? Jynxx is detailing a T1 card and NOT a serial card, the part number for these modules is likely to be VWIC-2MFT-T1 or 2VWIC-1MFT-T1. If you meant a WIC-1T (60-pin serial WAN module) then it's maximum speed is 2Mbps, although in a normal situation it takes the clock from the serial line.

Yes, I made a logical assumption that this was for a T1 card. ADB100 is correct that my information supplied above does NOT apply to anything other than that.
