Qwest Double-Sided Keychain Charm
Keep Qwest history close with a Double-Sided Keychain Charm inspired by a defining name in modern American telecommunications. From its 1996 beginnings as Southern Pacific Telecommunications Company to its Denver-era growth and 2000 merger with US West, Qwest represented the race to build fiber networks and connect households and businesses. This small collectible suits keys, bags, and daily carry while giving former customers, employees, and telecom-history fans a reminder of the DSL, long-distance, and regional service era before Qwest became part of CenturyLink.
Qwest Communications International, Inc. was a U.S. telecommunications carrier founded in 1996 by Philip Anschutz. It began as Southern Pacific Telecommunications Company, building all-digital fiber-optic infrastructure along railroad lines owned by Southern Pacific Transportation Company to serve high-speed data and T1 customers. After Southern Pacific merged with Union Pacific in 1997, the telecom assets remained separate; the company was renamed Qwest and became publicly traded in June 1997. Qwest expanded through acquisitions including SuperNet in 1997, LCI in 1998, and Icon CMT and EUnet International in 1998. On June 30, 2000, Qwest merged with US West, bringing local telephone operations across 14 western and midwestern states into Qwest. Headquartered at 1801 California Street in Denver, Colorado, it offered voice, long-distance, DSL, data, Internet backbone, wireless and selected television services. CenturyLink announced its acquisition of Qwest on April 22, 2010; the merger closed April 1, 2011, and Qwest began doing business as CenturyLink in August 2011.
