Then you mean unchannelized E1 is clear channel of 2M with no framing
convention of PDH. While channelized E1 is the normal E1 of PDH with 
slot 0 for synchronization, and slot 16 for in-band signaling. Then 
if I order a channelized E1, I actually get only 30 slots available 
for my data, right?

The practical example may be: if I rent a 2M DDN p-t-p connection form
A to B, then I get the _unchannelized_ E1 connection, clear bandwidth,
and low delay. While the 2M connection between LE(local exchange in
PSTN)
A and LE B of a carrier is _channelized_ E1 connection with possible 
30 slot in it for 64K voice, right?

What's more, what's fractional E1 mean? Only nx64K(n<32) connection 
within a _channelized_ E1?

Your "point-to-multipoint" mean the slots can be swtiched to different
termination, because they are actually a "bundle" of connections,right?


thanks for your commnets.
