What is the North Carolina Information Highway (NCIH)?
The North Carolina Information Highway (NCIH) provides state government entities with a broadband network for high-speed data, voice, and video. It operates within the Department of Commerce and is managed by Information Technology Services (ITS). The information highway supports the vision that all people of North Carolina will have broadband access simultaneously and efficiently for teleconferencing, high-speed data, distance learning, and multimedia applications. The NCIH project gives the state of North Carolina the advantages of broadband technology and ways to reorganize government operations to improve service, implement new services, and reduce overall costs.
