Here's a few more details -
We provision T1.
Salesdroid asks "You wanna give us $$$ for clear channel?"
Us: "..... ?"
Salesdroid: "It's so you can get 64kbit rather than the normal 56k"
Us: "We thought all DS-0s were 64kbit?"
Me: "I know! I'll ask NANOG!"
Here's a document that further obfuscates the matter for me -

Anybody care to comment on its relevance in this situation? If I read it
correctly, Clear Channel = Less Capacity. Doesn't sound right.
I believe the carrier in question is AT&T.
thanks for any input you guys might have

Subject: Clear Channel on a T1
Can anybody give me some info on what exactly "Clear Channel" means in
relation to a DS1 circut?
My gut tells me that it's only relevant with voice Ts...
thanks,
