We are pleased to announce that Nextera Communications acquired Telephone Associates earlier this year. The combined company will continue operating under both the Nextera and Telephone Associates names.
“We always admired Telephone Associates’ commitment to customer service, their loyal customer base and their support for the communities of Duluth and Superior and surrounding area,” says President Greg Arvig. “With this purchase, we’ve retained the existing TA employees. Together, we’ll continue to provide local support for customers and also offer new, exciting opportunities when their needs change.”
Nextera has built a next-generation, all-digital infrastructure that delivers IP networking for customers of all sizes. Telephone Associates’ business customers can immediately take advantage of advanced services such as Hosted Voice (including a full range of work-from-home options), SIP trunking, virtual private networking and call center telephony as well as fiber and fixed wireless for high-speed internet needs.
We are a team of highly trained individuals that work together to provide, install and maintain critical digital and electronic equipment and systems.

TA has been in business for 50 years by consistently providing not just high-quality products, but most importantly supporting and servicing those products throughout that products service life. We are local, all calls regarding any questions, billing, and service are received here in Superior, WI.
