History

Telecom Bermuda has been providing the highest quality telecommunication applications since 1968, when the company was spun off from the Young, Trott and Company Limited. The newly formed, Telecommunications Networks Limited ("Telecom") was ably managed by Derek G. Taylor until 1982 when, due to local regulations, he was forced to reduce his ownership. He sold the entire company to P.M. Limited, controlled and operated by Charles Marshall. In 1984, Telecom formed a central monitoring business, Security & Communications Systems Bermuda Limited. This buiness line was later sold to Purvis Limited in 1990 and Telecom became focused solely on wireless technologies. In November of 2002, Telecom sold all its assets related to the GSM cellular business to AT&T Wireless.

Through the years we have enjoyed close relationships with many of the world's leading companies, such as Motorola, Vodaphone, AT&T Wireless, Radio Shack, Proxim and Stratex. Our services are used by many of Bermuda's top companies and we provide world class telecommunications solutions to the Bermuda public safety agencies, the Bermuda Government and the construction industries. Telecom also services and provides manufacturer's warranties on most of the products we sell.

Telecom was the first in Bermuda to deploy international Skypaging, email to paging gateways, GPS vehicle tracking, trunked two-way radio and GSM cellular. Today, the company focuses on its core radio, paging, GPS and wireless data products and undertakes projects such as the Motorola Marine VHF system that is designed to make the local maritime environment a safer place.

Currently, Telecom is working on a host of new wireless technologies that will greatly improve how business is done in Bermuda. Check back, there are exciting updates on the way.
