This Thursday, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) will vote on proposed rules seeking to streamline wireless infrastructure deployment. This Order, and its passage, comes at a critical time in America’s infrastructure story. The United States has historically focused modernization efforts on physical assets including roads, bridges and highways. But, to unlock significant economic and life-changing consumer benefits, we must prioritize the modernization of next-generation wireless networks.
The current U.S. landscape with 4G wireless has given way to successful innovations in our burgeoning Internet of Things (IoT) world. Yet, it won’t hold a candle to what is to come if we can successfully usher in the next stage of connectivity, i.e., 5G wireless broadband services.
