We’ve been a trusted representative of independent telecommunications companies across Wisconsin for more than 30 years, and we’re in it for the long haul.
We were foundational in implementing BadgerNet, one of the largest and most sophisticated telecommunications networks in America. Our communities rely upon us to keep it connected, and we always answer the call.
We have been strongly committed to providing the best access to education possible by using cutting edge technological solutions. As a major stakeholder in Badgernet, Access Wisconsin provides quality telecommunications services across the state to:
University of Wisconsin campuses
Colleges
K-12 schools
Various tribal and technical colleges
We leverage the collective resources of our telecom partners to deliver dependable, world-class service across the state. We do this on behalf of, for and alongside several other leading organizations.
From a small collection of Telcos in the late 1980s, through the digital revolution, and into the 21st century, Access Wisconsin has provided guidance and technical expertise at every step of our state’s telecommunications development.
