Digital Connectivity for Your Evolving Voice, Video and Data Transport Needs
HickoryTech gives you an efficient way to integrate your local voice, data and video communications on the same high-performance digital trunks using industry-standard Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) Primary Rate Interface (PRI) technology. This all-digital service connects your digital PBX (or other digital premises equipment) directly to the HickoryTech Network over ISDN-configured T1 facilities you can use for virtually any combination of voice, video, or switched data transmissions. You don’t have to designate certain channels for each type of transmission; your bandwidth is allocated automatically on a call-by-call basis.
