A quick look at Cisco's configurator tool, found at
http://www.cisco.com/pcgi-bin/front.x/config_root.pl
reveals the following:
the 26xx supports a DS3 ATM network module
the 36xx same thing. Can get a HSSI module, if you want to use an external
T3 DSU
otherwise, yes, your only choice is 7204 or better.
If you are breaking out voice, then you need go through a third party T3 DSU
mux. I recently researched this for a customer, and all I could come up with
is the Adtran T3SU300. This unit has a built in HSSI port, and three slots
into which you can place DS1 cards. Four T-1's per card, total of 12 T-1's
for voice. The vendor requires unchannelized DS3. Since this box will output
data via HSSI, you can use a 36xx router. 26xx does not appear to support
the HSSI module.

one other thing you can always do when researching is call Cisco's pre-sales
number 800-553-NETS ( I believe it is option two ) and ask. Learn a lot that
way. :->

Subject: T3 circuit connectivity
All,
We are installing a T3 circuit (point-to-point between 2 local sites)and
looking for 2 routers that support a T3 interface. Have only found the 7000
series, does the 2600/3600 series support a T3 interface.
Also, should a multiplexor/channelized be used for the connection?
I believe they may break out around 10 channels for phone but this
is still up in the air.
I have not handled a T3 before, just a regular T1 interfaces.
Any suggestions or whitepapers would greatly be appreciated.
Thank you in advance for the tips and feedback.
