Working
DS3 → 7 × DS2
- 7 × DS2 in each DS3 ANSI T1.107M13 multiplex: seven DS2s.
- 7 DS2s
Leftover capacity
552 kbit/s of each DS3 line rate (44.736 Mbit/s) sits outside 7 × 6.312 Mbit/s of DS2 line rate (44.184 Mbit/s). That remainder is overhead, fixed stuff or justification. It is not another whole tributary.
