- Latest Updates & Information - 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. Medical Imaging Transmission Bandwidth Medical images, such as those generated by Teleradiology equipment, have large file sizes due to high resolution. Rapid transmission between hospitals and medical centers requires high availability, high bandwidth telecommunication services. For smaller offices or infrequent use, a T1 data line or bonded T1 lines might suffice. For medium and larger facilities, DS3, Fast Ethernet and OCx fiber optic services are recommended. 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. What is the T-Carrier System? T-Carrier is a set of standards developed by the Bell Telephone Companies back in the 1950s. These include T1 and T3 lines. They also define digital signal levels such as DS0, DS1 and DS3. DS0 is 64 Kbps, DS1 is 1.5 Mbps and DS3 is 45 Mbps. The Importance of DS0 DS0 and DS3 are part of the same set of digital signal standards. DS0 is 64 Kbps, the bandwidth required to support one telephone call of 8 bits at a sampling rate of 8 Kbps. DS3 has a speed of 44,736 Kbps, commonly referred to as 45 Mbps. This speed level was chosen so that 672 DS0s could be multiplexed into one DS3. One DS3 can also multiplex 28 DS1 services. DS1 is the signal level transmitted on a T1 line.
