Either. You're paying for dedicated bandwidth.

FYI Blue:
Yes a T1 is a 4 wire circut, with 1 pair of wires dedicated for sending data and 1 pair for receiving data, thus the full bandwith of 1.5mbps available in full duplex both directions simultaneously. Anything above the T3 circuts are runinng on fiber optic lines but also use 2 fibers for the circit, 1 to send and 1 to receive.
