Wireless Internet Service Providers (WISPs)
As a wireless internet service provider, you are poised to capitalize on unprecedented government and private investor funded multi-gigabit broadband rollouts globally.
As the catalysts for broadband innovation across the globe and being among the first to market with broadband services unbridled by legacy infrastructure, you are leading the charge to bridge the digital divide.
As demand for high-speed broadband services increases, you may be expanding your service areas or transitioning your wireless subscriber relationships to fiber-enabled fixed services with higher potential Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) and customer satisfaction rates.
