Communications Test & Measurement


Power & Tel

JDSU Partner

Headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee, Power & Telephone Supply Company (Power & Tel) is an independent distributor of material for the telecommunications and cable TV industries worldwide.

Power & Tel was founded in 1963 by Miller Pentecost. The company is still family based as our founder's son, Jim Pentecost, became President and CEO in 1985 and remains in that position today.

We do not manufacture any products or own any service providers who might claim our first allegiance. Our complete focus is on providing our customers with the products and services you need to make your business successful.

Our mission is to be your most cost-effective way to have the right material at the right place at the right time, every time. 

Power & Tel offers a complete product solution from the top manufacturers in the communications marketplace. However, we understand that within that marketplace, there are different product needs and service requirements. For this reason, we focus our sales team's efforts by splitting them into distinct service areas. This then enables Power & Tel to provide you the dedicated service you deserve.
