AT&T Long Lines Technical History Page

 

These pages are dedicated to the phenomenal job done by the men and women of the Long Lines Department in providing unparalleled service to the nation.  The information here is specifically limited to pre-divestiture topics, primarily the nationwide systems of microwave radio repeaters and coaxial cable facilities built between the end of World War II and divestiture in 1984.  Special interest is in aspects of the network that supported government and military communications during the cold war, especially nuclear protected facilities.
