FONTEL - QUALITY COMMUNICATIONS SOLUTIONS

GN was established in 1869, in Copenhagen, as the Great Northern Telegraph Company, later GN Store Nord, opened its doors with the idea of uniting the trading capitals of Europe and Asia by stringing telegraph cables across the continents and under the seas.

In 1987 GN Netcom (now operating as GN US in the United States) was founded under the GN Store Nord umbrella. Since launching its first headset, Stetomike, the company has launched and marketed a long list of innovative headset solutions.
