CL: check with your carrier as to how they hand off DS3 to you. In this part
of the world, the handoff is via two coax with BNC. In that case, you would
also need something like a Kentrox or an Adtran T3 device which accepts the
coax and hands off as HSSI.

CL: that being the case, you would be better off buying a DS3 card.
