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.

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 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.

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.
