Connexion Technologies Reaches Out to Manufactured Housing Communities

Technology infrastructure company announces plans to expand business.

Connexion Technologies announced today plans to expand its business model to include an additional sector of the housing market: manufactured housing.

In addition to single-family, multi-family, high-rise, resort and hospitality properties, Connexion Technologies will now serve manufactured housing communities. Connexion will manage telecommunications infrastructure for these properties and enable the same quality of Internet, telephone, and television services as those available at its other properties.

Connexion will continue to act as the service provider manager for these properties ensuring that service providers maintain commercial-level service standards.

“We are uniquely poised to serve this market because of our adaptability,” said Brian Gullette, Connexion’s Vice President of Business Development. "Connexion Technologies has never been a one-size fits all company. We have built customized network solutions to fit the needs of individual properties for years. By reaching out to the manufactured housing community, we can bring all of the benefits of advanced broadband access to even more people."

“Additionally, our strong partnerships with a variety of national providers like Dish Network and DIRECTV allow us to negotiate for great savings and pass those savings along to these communities and their residents,” added Gullette.

Connexion Technologies’ first activation in a manufactured home community will be in Colorado this month with several other properties nationwide to follow in the coming months.
