Franklin Rolls out Internet Service
Westlake Village, CA: Franklin Telecom announced today it has made available today
both analog dial up and ISDN service for connecting to the Internet in the Ventura County
area of Southern California.
Frank W. Peters, Franklin's President & CEO said, "According to data sources at
Oppenheimer, there are 54 Million users on the Internet now and growing at the rate of
100,000 new users per day worldwide. We have concentrated on building a high speed,
high quality infrastructure to service our customers. These are easy word to say but the
round-the- clock operation and coordination of many phone companies could be a
difficult. Were it not for the dedication and organization of our people, we certainly could
not have rolled out our service on time."

Control Center has been designed from the ground up to support business customers.
Our robust systems will provide high availability to all of our customers for ISDN, Frame
