Herndon-based NRTC plans to acquire Pulse Broadband LLC.
Financial details of the transaction were not released.
NRTC, the National Rural Telecommunications Council, serves 1,500 electric and telephone members in 48 states.
NRTC said the deal will accelerate its efforts to provide a full range of technology solutions to its electric and telephone members in the areas of broadband and communications services.
"It takes multiple technologies to overcome the broadband and communications connectivity challenges in the more rural areas served by our members", Tim Bryan, NRTC's CEO, said in statement. "Adding fiber to our portfolio of infrastructure services, including wireless and satellite, allows us to meet the broadest set of member needs. Working with Pulse over the past year, we have come to appreciate their deep knowledge, talent, and customer focus."
