About Spectrum

Spectrum Enterprise is the business division of Charter Communications (NASDAQ: CHTR), one of the United States' largest cable and fiber providers with approximately 100,000 employees and service availability across a significant domestic footprint. Founded in 1993, Spectrum has built an enterprise connectivity business characterized by a distinctive customer-facing philosophy: service delivered to the customer suite, not just to the building entry point or service closet.

Installation and Service Commitment

One of Spectrum's most operationally meaningful differentiators is its Fiber Quick Connect program — a commitment to install fiber connectivity services in less than 30 days. For enterprises with time-sensitive openings, relocations, or emergency connectivity requirements, this speed-to-service commitment sets Spectrum apart from carriers whose installation timelines routinely run 60–90 days. No contracts on Small Business services add further flexibility for qualifying organizations.

Connectivity Portfolio

Top products include Broadband, Dedicated Fiber Internet, and Ethernet — the core connectivity trifecta for enterprise locations within Spectrum's footprint. Public data services cover 4G/LTE/5G, asymmetrical and symmetrical broadband, DIA, and fixed wireless. Private networking includes point-to-point private lines and Dark Fiber (ICB). DDoS mitigation is available across the portfolio.

Cloud connectivity is delivered directly and domestically to AWS, Azure, GCP, IBM, and Oracle. SD-WAN and SASE support covers Cisco Meraki, Cisco Umbrella/Secure Access, and Fortinet.

Government Contract Vehicles

Spectrum Enterprise holds one of the most extensive state and local government contract vehicle portfolios in this evaluation — covering CALNET (California), Los Angeles County, Michigan, MCTA, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New York City OTI, North Carolina, NY OGS, Ohio DAS, Oregon, Texas DIR, WI DOA, and Wyoming. Organizations navigating state procurement processes will find Spectrum's contract vehicles a meaningful procurement accelerator.
