As a consortium of 20 communication cooperatives, CNS serves a key role for assisting member/owners and the telecommunications industry as a whole with a variety of services that help members do more, while controlling their own destiny.

Our ownership consists exclusively of cooperative telecommunications providers. CNS reflects the cooperative spirit and values of its owners in the services it provides. By working together, CNS provides a way for members to realize some of the benefits and efficiencies of consolidation that much of the rest of our industry has experienced in recent years, while at the same time offering services that no single member could offer alone. This is very much in keeping with the cooperative mission.

By bundling member volume, our members minimize costs while gaining access to services normally not available to small companies. SS7 services, shared training, and preferred vendors are available to all members.
