History
In June of 1948, one of PenTeleData's corporate forefathers set an antenna atop a mountain, ran a wire down to his nearby appliance store and extended it to homes of customers who purchased his TV sets. This, more than fifty years ago, launched a worldwide communications revolution: The Birth of Cable Television. Today, PenTeleData offers Internet access to more than 1 million businesses, households and educational facilities throughout the region.
Founded in 1994, PenTeleData has been blazing new trails in Telecommunications and Internet technology. As Pennsylvania's largest provider of Internet service and data connectivity. PenTeleData, coupled with the vast resources of our operating partners, has engineered one of the most reliable, multi-megabit, redundant, fully-meshed, privately-owned networks in the nation.
