C Spire

C Spire, formerly known as Cellular South, Inc., is an American privately owned telecommunications and technology company headquartered in Ridgeland, Mississippi. The company consists of three business divisions – Wireless, Home Fiber, and Business.

C Spire owns and has access to low, mid and high-band wireless spectrum in its primary service areas. The division offers 5G and 4G LTE mobile services and has been offering wireless services since 1988. C Spire provides service in Mississippi, the Memphis Metropolitan Area, and parts of Alabama including Mobile and Baldwin County. C Spire sells devices as well as prepaid and postpaid plans.

C Spire Home Fiber, began Gigabit speed Fiber to the Home efforts in 2013, providing gigabit and multi-gigabit residential fiber internet access for consumers in Mississippi, Alabama and Tennessee. C Spire operates over 20,000 route miles of buried fiber optic cable.

C Spire Business offers fiber-backed broadband, telephony and IT services.

C Spire is owned by the holding company Telapex, Inc., which also owns Telepak Networks, Inc., and several smaller Mississippi and Alabama telecoms.

In 2006 the firm opened its first sales center outside of its native network footprint. In 2009, the company purchased Alabama-based Corr Wireless, which expanded its coverage in Alabama and moved it into Georgia for the first time (in 2013 Corr Wireless was subsequently sold to AT&T).

The company's wireless division announced on September 22, 2011, that it planned on rebranding from Cellular South to C Spire Wireless to be put into effect on September 26 of that year. In 2013, C Spire announced it was purchasing Mobile, Alabama based Callis Communications, a provider of unified cloud services for businesses. In 2014, the company activated Mississippi's first residential 1 Gbps Fiber to the Home customer in Quitman, Mississippi.

In 2018, the company purchased Teklinks, based in Birmingham, Alabama, to expand their footprint in the commercial and enterprise business, as well as their geographical footprint in the southeast.
