What is DS3?
DS3 or Digital Signal level 3 is a standardized TDM service offering a bandwidth of 45 Mbps. It may be delivered over SONET fiber optic service or over copper coaxial cable. When delivered over copper, the line is generally referred to as a T3 line.

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.

DS3 as an Internet Backbone
DS3 service configured as an dedicated Internet port offers 45 Mbps of upload and download bandwidth. This is ideal for small and medium size ISPs and WISPs. that have exceeded the capacity available from multiple T1 lines.

How Does DS3 differ from T3?
The terms DS3 and T3 are often used interchangeably. Both refer to a TDM (Time Division Multiplexing) digital telecom service operating at 45 Mbps. Strictly speaking, DS3 is the digital signal level that can be carried by either copper or fiber physical links. T3 is the T-Carrier standard for DS3 over coaxial copper service.

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.
