NM-1A-T3 module for combining T1s

Hello,

Our company currently has about 12 point-to-point T1s from different sites all connecting to our headquarters. We are moving soon, so we have decided to get a DS3 at our headquarters that will have all of the T1s coming in on it, instead of having about 12 T1s coming in.

I have asked a Cisco dealer to get me a quote on a new router and module to support this, and they gave me a quote for a Cisco 3845 router with a NM-1A-T3 module. As far as I can tell, this module is ATM only and I don't see how it would support multiplexing T1s onto a DS3.

I haven't found much documentation on doing the type of setup I am trying to do, so I was wondering if anyone can offer any suggestions. I would appreciate any advice from anyone who has experience with T3/DS3 modules. Also, if it is possible to do this with the NM-1A-T3 module I would greatly appreciate any sample configurations for this type of setup.

Thanks.
