Our Story
Timbercon was founded in January 1997 by Eric Meslow (CEO) and James Davies (COO). Originally named Timberline Connectivity, we first offered copper-related products, then shifted focus to fiber optic solutions in 2000. In 2003, we rebranded and shortened our name to Timbercon.
In 2020, Timbercon was acquired by Radiall, a global company that specializes in interconnect solutions. Today, Radiall and Timbercon are able to offer even better end-to-end interconnect solutions. Radiall’s global network can help expand our fiber optic expertise, making it possible to connect with even more customers.
