Broadband Associates was founded specifically to assist clients in creating "smart communities." "Smart communities" are those that have elevated their ability to grow creatively, socially, and economically, through the effective deployment and development of networks; social networks, transportation networks, communication networks.
At Broadband Associates, we are communications network experts.
We supply and manage secure, reliable, and future-proof fiber-optic communications solutions for select government entities and educational institutions. We were founded by a team of highly experienced education professionals and telecom experts from AT&T Broadband. Our mission is to be the provider of choice, for a full range of custom tailored, private fiber-optic network services to government and education. Our goal is to help our clients focus on running their organization, instead of on running their network.
Unlike large common carriers, we're focused totally on our clients. We are organized to deliver maximum efficiency and value, and we continuously negotiate to bring additional partners and resources into the network. We also have a Service Provider ID Number (SPIN), so our solutions can be eligible for E-Rate support funding from the federal government.
