About
Description
ERC Broadband, a project of the Education and Research Consortium of the Western Carolinas, Inc., is dedicated to providing Fiber-Based Network Services to the Western Carolina region. With a locally-focused approach, our non-profit organization aims to promote technology adoption and advance the growth of the broader community. Our state-of-the-art fiber optic network allows us to deliver fast, reliable, and secure services to our clients across multiple locations.
Since our establishment in 1997, ERC has been committed to expanding the educational technology-focused infrastructure in western North Carolina and Upstate South Carolina. We have received grants from prestigious organizations like the Library of Congress to fund the construction and expansion of our regional fiber optic network. Today, we have multiple Points of Presence (PoPs) connected to Tier 1 and Tier 2 partners, ensuring extensive broadband connectivity and related services.
Through our partnerships and participation in programs like the Broadband Technology Opportunities Program (BTOP), we have made significant progress in expanding our network. Notably, the GoldenLEAF Rural Broadband Initiative (GLRBI) has enabled us to construct approximately 1500 miles of new fiber across 69 counties, with 100 miles being added to our network. At ERC Broadband, we are proud to have connected and served over 50 community anchor institutions including educational institutions, local government facilities, hospitals, and healthcare agencies in Buncombe, Madison, Avery, Yancey, McDowell, and Mitchell counties.
