Is it
possible that last mile problems have been solved through the
use of fixed wireless technology? We believe it is and the companies
on this list stand to benefit from their ability to deliver high-speed
Internet access including voice and video without fiber optic
cable. The FCC allows only a handful of licenses for fixed wireless.
According to Insight Research, a telecom market research firm,
this market that will grow from $197.1 million in 1999 to $1.52
Billon in 2004. That's a fat growth rate of 50.5% on an annual
basis. These four companies are the main players because they
are currently licensed to deliver broadband Internet access via
fixed wireless technology: Advanced Radio Telecomm (ARTT), Nextlink
Communications (NXLK), Teligent (TGNT) and Winstar Communications
(WCII). You might be interested in our broader Wireless
List.
