Digital Subscriber Line (DSL)  
DSL service is recommended for faster connectivity, especially for customers who repeatedly use dial-in services to places such as OIT's mainframe or servers from an offsite location.  DSL may be purchased as a standalone product where only data is relayed and excludes voice capabilities.

Included within MNT are two main transport protocols: Frame Relay and ATM. Frame Relay is a high-speed packet switching protocol used in Wide Area Networks.  Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) is a network technology for both local and Wide Area Networks that support real-time voice and video as well as data.

OIT's Consolidation of Cellular Phone Plans

In October 2008, OIT completed an 18 month effort to consolidate the individual cellular phone plans used by agencies in the Executive and Judicial branches and Secretary of State's office.  This consolidation allows agencies to take advantage of pooled minutes and for the state to realize a significant cost savings as well as receive enterprise level reporting.
