Customer: Phillipsburg Area School District
Our longstanding partnership with northwestern New Jersey's Phillipsburg School District illustrates many outstanding benefits PenTeleData's educational customersenjoy.

Plus, PenTeleData's corporate partnerships, like our relationship with Service Electric Company, help keep PenTeleData ahead of the competition and foster innovation and the creation of great projects.

Take PADLOCK , PenTeleData's proprietary content filtering software solution for schools and organizations that are serious about filtering the Internet for its users. "We have been satisfied with all of PenTeleData's products and services," says Larry McKenna, Director of Information Technology for the Phillipsburg School District. "PADLOCK® is a quick, inexpensive and simple solution to the federal regulations that required an Internet filter for those of us receiving federal funds."

PenTeleData also provides Phillipsburg a dedicated highspeed DirectNet Internet connection and EtherPoint service solution for schools in the district.

"Throughout our relationship with PenTeleData, our connection to the Internet has remained solid," McKenna says. "Dependability and performance have been excellent." Also, the exceptional quality of PenTeleData's customer service and support is another point of contentment for Phillipsburg's schools.

"We're very pleased with PenTeleData's customer service and support," he says. "This can simply be expressed through the names of these incredible people: Nancy Treskot, Denise Shupp, Dave Antonuik of PenTeleData plus Jeff Kelly and John Turner from Service Electric Company."

According to McKenna, PenTeleData's complete EtherPoint Internet solution and PADLOCK service have enabled Phillipsburg to advance its technology plans. "We are required by the Schools and Libraries program to provide safe Internet for our students," he says. "Nothing is ever perfect, but the reliability of PADLOCK® has allowed our staff to concentrate on curriculum. The flexibility of PADLOCK® has allowed us to tailor users to each unique situation within the curriculum."

"Furthermore, our high-speed Internet access solution has opened up a whole new world. Our fiber-optic network built by Service Electric runs in coordination with our high-speed Internet, enabling our teachers and students unlimited access to sites no matter how large or how much download capacity is required," McKenna says.

"With this new state-of-the-art network and Internet connection, we have been able to develop a technology plan that includes new premiere voice, video and data technologies that will carry this district for many years into the future," he says.

PenTeleData and its partner Service Electric have also directly helped Phillipsburg School District expand its network to encompass various institutions in the community. "With the help of PenTeleData and Service Electric, we have at this point been able to add connectivity to the Phillipsburg Senior Center, Saints Phillip and James Catholic School, and now the Town of Phillipsburg will be on our network and will develop its website in coordination with our high school kids," he says.

PenTeleData's partner Service Electric has also received rave reviews from Phillipsburg for their hard work with the school district.

Finally, the unbeatable reliability of PenTeleData's Internet service continues to encourage Phillipsburg to provide its students with boundless learning opportunities. "Most of the information that goes into the reports is downloaded from the Internet through PenTeleData," he adds. "Currently we are developing with our high school students an evening show for local and world news, and most of the material for that show will be downloaded from the Internet."

For home, education, business, health care and government, PenTeleData makes good on our promise to deliver dedicated, reliable and affordable high-speed Internet, data and security services. Customers count on PenTeleData to provide ideal solutions and enjoy the customary confidence that comes standard with any PenTeleData account.
