asterisk users - Jul 2005 - Mixed Voice/Data T1

We have a server running Asterisk and shorewall, three network 
interfaces and a T1 card, it functions as our firewall, pbx and connects 
to an Adtran 600 for FXS/FXO. We currently have two internet feeds, 
hence the three NICs.
 Our 10 PSTN lines are currently delivered POTS to our FXO and rather 
lousy service, volume is low and voice quality is dull.

The Telco is offering me a Fractional T1 for our data needs. I thought 
that the best way would be to have the voice and data delivered on the 
T1. How difficult would it be to take the T1 into our Sangoma T1 card 
and seperate out the voice to asterisk and the data as our internet feed?

The voice side of a fractional T1 is usually delivered as analog
connections.

We have an Eschelon integrated T1, and they installed a Vina Integrator 
to split the voice and data.
