CCA essentially blended its Mobile Carrier’s Show, which is usually held in the spring, with its Annual Convention, held in the fall, since the Covid pandemic caused the spring event to be cancelled this year. CCA President and CEO Steven Berry said the newly designed virtual show, which is free, will deliver the top topics of interest to its audience.A good example of a CCA member that’s moving on FWA is Shentel, which recently announced a new FWA service called Beam Internet. It will initially leverage antenna attachments on existing macro towers, and it will use its 2.5 GHz spectrum in portions of Virginia, West Virginia and Ohio. However, Shentel recently won a total of 262 PALs in 74 counties, and it’s assessing its business plan to use that CBRS spectrum for FWA in the rest of its footprint.The CCA is also participating in discussions around the 3.45-3.55 GHz band, which the FCC is considering putting up for auction. Berry said the trade group wants “appropriate-sized licenses that allows multiple carriers to bid,” and it’s also participating in the debate about power levels. “It could be a very unique 100 MHz slice of spectrum that could tie CBRS utilization to a more robust C-Band deployment,” he said. “But you have to plan for it.”Berry said that “supply chain issues will be prevalent” in discussions at the CCA show. The trade group is following Huawei- and ZTE-related legislation closely. Items addressing the replacement of Huawei equipment in networks were included in three house bills and two senate bills related to Covid-19 relief packages. But no money has actually been allocated, yet.“The FCC pointed out there’s numerous other networks that have Huawei equipment in them that was previously unknown,” he said. “Wireless operators had to report Huawei and ZTE equipment in their networks because many of them got Universal Service Funds. What has not been done is fully understanding the wireline side. That was only a voluntary request.” -- ???????? | |||
