EDCi, originally founded as Electroline, Inc. in September 1979 by Eugene Loftus Higgins, started as a local distributor of electrical wire, cable, and specialty products. Over the years, the company evolved into a value-added reseller focused on power protection and precision cooling solutions for IT equipment. In 1988, the company expanded to become Electroline Data Communications Incorporated (EDCi).

Today, EDCi serves as an enterprise-wide solution provider, offering technology and communications-related products and services to corporations locally in Wisconsin, nationally across the United States, and globally. The company prioritizes delivering a best-in-class experience and completing tasks as designed and promised, regardless of the size of the task.
