About Us

Our Approach

Partnerships.  Relationships.  Loyalty.  Parlay's logo is a triangle because it's key points represent these three characteristics.  Without our partnerships with our manufacturers we would not be able to provide an expansive product line to our clients.  Without relationships with our manufacturers and clients we could not provide complete solutions.  If you have strong partnerships and relationships, then you have loyalty.  Loyalty extends to colleagues, clients, coworkers and anyone entrusted to whom we have worked with over the years and we call friends.

Our Story

Our beginnings started over thirty years ago when telecommunications was basically the major telephone companies where a cable came from a pole in the street to your house and you were able to make a phone call.  It was never expected a home telephone land line would be almost obsolete.  Because of our knowledge, experience and expertise, we have been able to adjust and adapt to the changes of the technology.  We are a unique company in that we bring value to not only to the telecommunications industry but also to MSO/Cable markets as well.
