...For Various Values of Geek
I’m a geek. For several odd and esoteric values of geek. People often have to stop me in mid conversation, asking: “Can you say that again in English?”.
I’ve been dealing with Verizon for one of our customers, who is having issues with a newly installed voice T-1. For those of you who don’t speak Telco, a T-1 is a single pair of copper wires, like a phone line. Except, it can carry 24 channels of stuff, either voice or data, by dividing up the signals and alternatining between them.
T-1’s generally work, or they are horribly munged and b0rked in ways that are painful to explain.
I was just on a conference call bridge with a tech from Verizon National Helpdesk, and a CO tech. I actually had to stop them and ask, “Can you translate that from Telco to High Geek for me?”
