Terragraph: 60 GHz FWA gets real

Watch or listen to our Sparring Partners videocast on fixed wireless access (FWA) in the unlicensed 60 GHz band, with:

• Derek Peterson, CTO, Boingo Wireless
• Gino Villarini, Founder and President, Aeronet
• Mark Kelley, Strategic Partner Manager, Facebook
• Monica Paolini, Principal, Senza Fili

Topics we covered:

• Why use unlicensed 60 GHz for FWA? Why now?
• Can 60 GHz help bridge the digital divide in rural or metropolitan areas? Is it just for emerging countries?
• What elements of the ecosystem are in place, and what’s missing?
• How well can mmWave service enterprises as well as residential customers?
• What are the advantages of deploying Terragraph rather than a set of rooftop PtP links?
• What have Boingo and Aeronet have learned so far? What do they plan to do in the 60 GHz band in the US and in Puerto Rico?
• Why is Facebook driving Terragraph?
