PITTSBURGH — Wesco International on Wednesday announced it has entered a definitive agreement to acquire Rahi Systems Holdings Inc. for $217 million.

"This acquisition strengthens our leading data center solution offerings for our global customers," said Wesco Chairman, President and CEO John Engel. "Rahi's extensive services portfolio serving the leading global hyperscale data center providers expands the cross-sell opportunities across our company."
