So you'll need to transmux the DS1s from the VT1.5/STS-1 payload into
an M13 DS3...

You'll need:

The OC3 will be terminated to an Adtran OPTI-6100, muxed down to DS3 level which will then terminate to a 7206VXR PA-MC-T3. I have just been informed from the carrier that we need to extract the timeslots using STS payload for Virtual Trib 1.5 instead of regular DS1 signal. I don't see this as a listed option for the PA-MC-T3 card, can someone confirm / recommend the correct hardware to meet this requirement?
