T3 to E3 conversions

  • From: Hank Nussbacher

How do carriers handle E3 to T3 conversions?  What equipment is used?  I
have heard that trans-Atlantic carriers sell E3s to Europeans when in fact
it is a T3 with T3 costs passed on the customer and merely convert the line
from T3 to E3 - thereby causing 11Mb/sec of b/w to be wasted.  Any truth to
that?

Thanks,
Hank
