About DLS Communications
DLS Communications is a privately owned Voice over IP and information technology services provider, with primary expertise in unified communications and network operations. Our services include network security, IT networking, VoIP telephony and data center management.
Three Decades of Running Networks
From a local Internet provider in the 1990s to a company that designs and operates its own business phone platform.
1990s: Founded in Lake in the Hills
Our company launched providing residential and business Internet access and hosting services in Lake in the Hills, Illinois.
1995: Chicago-Area Data Centers
By 1995 we had established two data centers within the Chicago area and a network presence in Southern Wisconsin, which quickly expanded our abilities as an ISP.
Early 2000s: Fixed Wireless Network
We designed and built a fixed wireless broadband network in metropolitan Chicago. It grew to 26 towers along the Fox River Valley and earned a BBR Gold Award nomination from broadbandreports.com. That business was later sold.
2005: DLS Hosted PBX
In 2004 we formed an IP telephony software team to design a hosted VoIP solution for small business, and introduced DLS Hosted PBX across the continental U.S. in 2005.
2009: Network Solutions and Services
Our NSS group offers network consulting, architecture, design and maintenance for network and systems infrastructure, by consultants certified in Cisco, Unix or Microsoft technologies.
2011: On Every Continent
By 2011, DLS Hosted PBX SIP handsets could be found on every continent and in every U.S. state.
