DS3 vs Multiple T1 Lines
Bonding T1 lines for greater bandwidth is a good value up to about 8x or 9x bonding. Above that, it makes better economic sense to order DS3 service over fiber or T3 copper line. In metropolitan areas with high levels of buildout, the decision point may be less than 8 T1 lines.

Colocation is Often Cost Effective Bandwidth
Colocation is locating your servers in a colocation facility, also known as a carrier hotel. Advantages of this approach include ready availability of low cost bandwidth including DS3, Carrier Ethernet and SONET Fiber Optic OCx options. These data centers also offer backup power, environmental control and high levels of security.

Applications Demanding DS3 Bandwidth
DS3 transport is often used for real time video transport, high resolution images, large engineering files, and data backups to remote data centers. You can get this bandwidth through fiber optic delivery or over copper coaxial lines, called T3 lines.

DS3 as Ethernet Transport
DS3 bandwidth at 45 Mbps can easily transport 10 Mbps Ethernet over SONET or T3 line, even with the additional overhead needed to convert from packet to TDM back to packet protocol. For Fast Ethernet transport, an OC3 service at 155 Mbps would be required.

What is Fractional DS3 Service?
Fractional DS3, as the name implies, is a fraction of the full DS3 bandwidth of 45 Mbps. Companies order fractional DS3 when they don't need or want to pay for the full bandwidth offered by DS3. Even with fractional DS3, you still need the full coaxial or optical hardware support for 45 Mbps signaling. At low fractional requirements, bonded T1 lines offer a more cost effective solution.
