Your company’s data and internet network is a key business asset that supports mission critical communications to clients, vendors and employees and the productivity of your business. Our management team, which has over 100 years of combined industry experience, has been at the forefront of alternative local network industry from the late 80’s to today. BOB’s networks are designed and engineered specifically to meet the Internet, Metro Ethernet and Business Continuity network needs for today’s business environment.
BOB’s management team were pioneers in the fiber optic network space and were part of the team that deployed the nations first competitive access fiber optic network in the late 1980s as a part of Chicago Fiber Optics which later became Metropolitan Fiber Systems (MFS). Over the next 15 years we played a major role in the deployment of the national and global fiber optic infrastructure. In the early 2000s the BOB management team turned our focus to the wireless broadband space and was the team that deployed the first wireless broadband network in North America. This experience laid the foundation for BOB.
In 2005 BOB was formed with the concept of building wireless broadband Ethernet networks that would deliver service from T-1 to gigabit capacity, perform at the level of fiber optic infrastructure and have no common point of failure with the local exchange network. Over the past four years we have built the premier wireless broadband networks in Chicago and New York to provide your business with the following features and benefits:
