SUNNYVALE, Calif. (Reuters) - Juniper Networks Inc. (news/quote)(JNPR.O), which makes Internet communications equipment, said on Monday it would buy privately held Pacific Broadband Communications for about $200 million in stock in order to connect its high-speed optical equipment with home and office cable systems.

The acquisition would allow Juniper to enter the market for providing the equipment needed to drive advanced Internet-based services, including pay-per-view video and high-speed modem access, to cable television subscribers.

Pacific Broadband, in which Juniper already holds a 2 to 3 percent stake, is currently testing a system that would allow cable operators to deliver advanced Internet-based services over existing copper lines, the company said.
