Federal Broadband Mandates Driving the Need for Connectivity Hubs Ilissa Miller, Founder & CEO iMiller Public Relations, explores the importance of making sure networks work for the communities they serve. The Broadband Equity Access and Deployment Program (BEAD) is well underway. Across the nation and all U.S.-owned territories, $42.5 billion in Federal funding is being deployed to construct broadband networks. These funds are allocated to companies that can help bridge underconnected communities in order to expand the United States’ broadband infrastructure with increased capacity and reach to everyone. Each state receives federal funds for specific projects; the grant dollars are distributed to businesses through an application process that validates their design and solutions that meet the program requirements. The program funds are administered by the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA), a United States Department of Commerce organization, with key deadlines and criteria required to be met along the way. As an example, San Martin-based South Valley internet recently announced it has received up to $30 million in funding from the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), leveraging California’s allocated BEAD funding, to extend broadband services to underserved communities. https://lnkd.in/g6HdWrwk

Great article and great insights! Policymakers have a real conundrum on their hands: should they prioritize accelerating the already fast connections even further, or focus on narrowing the digital divide? Nevertheless, satellites have a role to play in either scenario! #satellites #satcom #broadband

It's devastating to see the damage caused by the California wildfires. T-Mobile is doing everything we can to help affected communities and first responders stay connected. Here are a few updates:  🔘 T-Mobile and Starlink opened up our T-Mobile Starlink Direct-to-Cellular service in impacted areas, delivering wireless emergency alerts, SMS, and enabling 911 texting, even without commercial power.  🔘 We’ve restored over half of the sites affected by power loss and are working to support the rest with portable generators.  🔘 We are collaborating with federal, state, and local officials to ensure critical connectivity, including deploying Wi-Fi routers at key locations.  Additional details on community support can be found here: https://lnkd.in/gnpXud6B

Interesting Read - The Western Governors Association is pressing Congress and Federal agencies to cut thier own red tape around Broadband Funding. Historically, most all of the Federal programs around Broadband funding are frout with Polices, Decres and procedures that impede the approval process, and limit the ablity of many Rural Providers to bid on and win funding. Tha WGA is also pushing to standardize the approved definition of broadband to "at least" 100 megabytes per second (Mbps) for downloads, 20 megabytes per second for uploads, and "scalable to" 100 Mbps for both, across all Federal Funding. #ruralbroadband #ruralinternet, #ruralconnectivity, #wisp, #wirelessbroadband

Did you know T-Mobile has the only nationwide #5G standalone #network in the U.S.? 5G Standalone is a "100% 5G network," built entirely on the latest 5G technology—without depending on older 4G systems like non-standalone 5G does. Standalone 5G is faster and more efficient than our 4G systems. And you need 5G standalone for innovations like: ✅ Network slicing ✅ Ultra-low latency ✅ Private 5G networks Discover how 5G standalone can take your business further: https://t-mo.co/4bKYfiT

As board chair of Telecommunications Industry Association, it gives me great pride to see the launch of Broadband Nation to bring industry, national, state and local government and training institutions together to attract and connect talent to jobs and training. Avion Networks, Inc is a proud sponsor of the Broadband Nation expo which served as a dynamic platform to shape the future of broadband in the U.S., focusing on the critical collaboration needed to close the digital divide and deliver high-speed internet to every home in America. We are particularly excited about three core areas heading into 2025: 1. Applying vertical AI solutions for reliable workflow automation. Particularly excited about automating network configuration, NOC operations, and faster Ansible scripting. 2. Optimizing broadband investments through our new resilience planning engine which will use data models to quickly analyze a given geography. 3. Accelerate BEAD by bridging the digital divide and ensuring equitable access to broadband services for all communities. David Stehlin FierceWireless
