DS1

DS1, or Digital Signal 1, is a standard for transmitting multiple telephone calls or data streams over a single high-capacity digital line. It divides the line into 24 separate channels, each capable of carrying voice or data, allowing efficient, reliable communication. Think of it as a highway with 24 lanes, each dedicated to a different conversation or data transfer, enabling quick and organized transmission over long distances. DS1 forms the foundation for many telecommunication systems, providing the backbone for modern digital communication networks.
