 | | The E1 signal format carries data at a rate of 2.048 million bits per second and can carry 32 channels of 64 Kbps* each. |
 | | E1 carries at a somewhat higher data rate than T-1 (which carries 1.544 million bits per second) because, unlike T-1, it does not do bit-robbing and all eight bits per channel are used to code the signal. |
 | | E2 (E-2) is a line that carries four multiplexed E1 signals with a data rate of 8.448 million bits per second. |
