Mar 30, 2006 : AT&T Provides Ethernet for College

📅 March 30, 2006 - Telecommunications provider AT&T (thenewatt.com) announced on Thursday it has signed a new contract with Michigan state college Oakland Community College. The three-year contract will provide OCC with Opt-E-MAN, a public switched Ethernet solution that will connect the college's five campuses by linking each location's local area network.

The high-bandwidth networking solution will securely support OCC's data transmission for an optimized application infrastructure and improved communications across its metropolitan Detroit's northern suburban campuses.

OCC will be able to instantaneously share data and access bandwidth-intensive applications through the cost-effective optical solution. AT&T will also provide toll-free, local and long distance voice services to all of OCC's campuses.

"We needed a quick and more cost-effective way to handle the growing data flow across our locations," says Clarence E. Brantley, vice chancellor of administrative services for Oakland Community College.
