Kansas
has become an attractive location for
information technology, relationship
marketing, and customer and administrative
service firms. These companies realize
the benefits of the area's neutral voice
pattern and the state's central time
zone location to efficiently access
both Eastern and Pacific time zones
during normal business hours.
In addition, Kansas does not have dual-party
approval requirements on telephone monitoring
for training purposes. Under Kansas
law, call monitoring is exempt from
breach of privacy statutes if consent
is provided by one of the parties.
The telecommunications market in
Kansas is one of the most competitive
in the country. Currently, there
are over 135 companies certified to
provide local telephone service in the
state, each offering the latest in technology.
Competitive Local Exchange Carriers
(CLECs) serve over 20 percent of the
telephone numbers in the state, the
highest such percentage in the country.
Cable companies are increasingly competing
for Internet and IP-based services in
both urban and rural areas. As it is
the incumbent provider, SBC serves the
majority of homes and businesses in
the region.
AT&T has developed FiberParks™,
which are designated areas served by
two separate routes of fiber optics
connecting the park and SBC's digital
central office switching system. These
two routes provide the network redundancy
that information processing-intensive
companies desire.
The digital fiber optic-based information
infrastructure provided is capable of
transporting voice, data, and video
at the speed of light, at the highest
level of quality. |
