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.

Dedicated DS3 Internet Access
Business broadband via DS3 dedicated Internet service offers 45 Mbps of upload and download capability. That's enough to support a medium size or larger office, including file transfers, email and Web browsing, video conferencing and real-time ecommerce activities.

How DS3 Relates to OC3
DS3 is a digital signal level originally developed to support the copper based T-Carrier digital telephone trunking system. DS3 offers about 45 Mbps of bandwidth . OC3 is a SONET optical carrier standard running at about 155 Mbps. An OC3 link can transport up to 3 separate DS3 services.

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.
