What Is This Tool?
This converter allows users to transform data transfer measurements from T1C (signal), a telecommunications bandwidth unit, into SCSI (Fast Ultra), a high-performance device interface throughput unit. It helps align network bandwidth information with storage device speeds.
How to Use This Tool?
-
Enter the value in T1C (signal) units you want to convert
-
Select the destination unit as SCSI (Fast Ultra)
-
Click the convert button to see the equivalent amount in SCSI (Fast Ultra)
-
Review example calculations and apply the results to your context

Conversion accuracy depends on specific network and hardware configurations
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does T1C (signal) measure?
-
T1C (signal) measures a digital telecommunications carrier signal transmitting 1.544 megabits per second, typically used for voice and data transport over leased or trunk lines.
-
What kind of devices use SCSI (Fast Ultra)?
-
SCSI (Fast Ultra) is used for connecting high-performance hard disk arrays, RAID controllers, tape drives, and other high-bandwidth peripherals such as optical jukeboxes.
-
Why convert from T1C (signal) to SCSI (Fast Ultra)?
-
Users convert values to compare telecommunications data rates with storage device speeds, facilitating integration and alignment of network and storage performances.
Key Terminology
-
T1C (signal)
-
A North American digital carrier signal transmitting 1.544 Mbps via time-division multiplexing 24 channels of 64 kb/s each, used for synchronous voice and data transport.
-
SCSI (Fast Ultra)
-
Parallel SCSI signalling modes combining Fast and Ultra extensions to improve device-to-host throughput, compatible with SCSI command sets, used for high-performance storage peripherals.
-
Data Transfer Rate
-
The speed at which data is transmitted from one device or medium to another, often measured in megabits or gigabits per second.
