Fractional T1 Speed

Hey now,

I just started a new job, and I was psyched that I would finally have some upload bandwidth on our T1. I have since learned that we have a fractional T1, and only 4 channels are for data, the other 10 for voice.

My question is: what would those 4 tracks allow for upload?

I started a test upload with no cap, and my boss immediately noticed a severe drain on the network : (

I am trying to get an idea of how fat our pipe is. It looks like it might not be much better than my home connection.

From what I can gather, it might be a measly 256 KB/s : (

I need an idea of the throughput of these 4 channels so I know how much I may be able to divert to better use; i.e. TDD.

Thanks,
Aiko
