The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act created a historic opportunity to ensure that every American has access to affordable, reliable internet service. The best approach to delivering this connectivity varies widely based on geography, terrain, population density, and cost. As the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) implements the Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) Program – as one of the largest federal investments in broadband infrastructure – it is critical to understand the full range of technologies available and how to deploy them in the most cost-effective way.
This webinar will examine unlicensed fixed wireless technology and its role within the broader broadband “toolkit.” It will define what unlicensed fixed wireless is, highlight real-world deployment examples, and explore cost considerations. The discussion will also cover situations where unlicensed fixed wireless can accelerate deployment by reducing or avoiding permitting challenges, as well as key network architecture considerations needed to deliver reliable, uninterrupted connectivity.
