Automation enabled [[Postal Telegraph and Telephone (Switzerland)|PTT]] to introduce pulse-metering for local calls in 1963. In 1966, PTT introduced automated international dialing services, initially from [[Montreux]] and achieved full coverage in 1982.

In 1970, PTT led an inter-organisational work group of Swiss telecommunications players, in an effort to create an integrated digital [[telecommunications network]] (IFS).

In 1976, the company launched [[facsimile transmission]] services from its customer service centers. Two years later, PTT established its first [[Mobile Telephone Network|mobile telephone network]], called [[NATEL]].

In 1980, PTT enabled facsimile transmission for the home and office market.

The [[telecommunication]]s business became known as Swiss Telecom PTT.
