Anterix has been selected as a solutions provider by NRTC, which represents more than 1,500 rural electric and telephone utilities and affiliates in 48 states, collectively serving approximately 20 million homes and 48 million residents. Under the agreement, Anterix will make available its 900 MHz spectrum and its supporting platform of utility applications and solutions to NRTC’s electric utility cooperative membership.
