San Juan Cable LLC (d/b/a OneLink Communications) was a triple player telecommunications company that provided broadband Internet access, VoIP, and television services in Puerto Rico. The company was owned by MidOcean Partners and Crestview Partners, which paid $250 million in June 2005 to buy the property from Adelphia. In June 25, 2012, it was rumored that Liberty Global may buy OneLink for $560 million USD.[1] The rumors came true as Liberty Global acquired Onelink Communications.[2]
OneLink covers the Puerto Rico metropolitan area and its services includes video on demand, high-definition television, and digital video recorders. The company is headquartered in San Juan and has over 145,000 television subscribers and 88,000 data customers.
Liberty announced on December 27, 2012 that OneLink customers will no longer have a capped internet which the previous limit was 40GB per month and that now it is unlimited.
