A T3 is an extremely high bandwidth dedicated connection which can carry up to 672 channels of voice and data traffic at any given time. This is done using a 44.736 Mbps connection, which is capable of carrying up to 28 times the traffic of a regular T1 line. T3 connections are extremely high in monthly cost, and are therefore only cost effective for large business and corporations.
