Building A Wired Infrastructure

"Perhaps the most important trend is the way wireless technology may solve the last-mile problem. Much of the country may never have high-speed options such as Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) and cable modems. That's where broadband fixed wireless steps in." This technology generally uses line-of-site radios to transmit data at high speed, eliminating the need to lay fiber. Fixed wireless can be used for dedicated point-to-point connections, shared connections for Internet access, and for bringing high-speed services, including voice, video and VPN to local communities.
