Here's a summary of the "Cell Site Insights" podcast episode, focusing on 5G security, telecom bills, and fiber expansion, all tailored for cell site landlords.
Episode Summary:
In this episode of "Cell Site Insights," Cell Site Appraiser (CSA) breaks down key wireless industry developments for cell site landlords, focusing on 5G security, telecom legislation, and fiber infrastructure. The discussion highlights how these changes impact cell site lease values.
The episode begins with Aduna's role in enhancing 5G network security. Aduna, a joint venture between Ericsson and major U.S. MNOs like AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon, is rolling out advanced 5G network application programming interfaces (APIs) focused on number verification and SIM swap protection. These APIs enhance security by ensuring the legitimacy of mobile numbers and preventing unauthorized SIM swaps. A more secure network translates to increased demand and usage, driving the need for more cell site infrastructure.
Next, the episode covers telecom-related bills passed by the House Committee on Energy and Commerce. These bills address precision agriculture, cybersecurity, supply chain resilience, and infrastructure. Key bills include the Precision Agriculture Satellite Connectivity Act, the Institute for Telecommunication Sciences Codification Act, and measures to assess trans-Atlantic fiber optic cable feasibility and improve cybersecurity. These legislative actions can impact wireless infrastructure demand and cell site values.
Finally, the episode explores fiber infrastructure expansion, featuring insights from FiberLight's CEO, Bill Major. FiberLight is strategically expanding its network, leveraging its owned fiber to ensure control and efficiency. The AI boom drives data center development and fiber demand, especially in rural areas. FiberLight partners with last-mile FTTH providers for growth, utilizing BEAD funding.
Key Takeaways:
- 5G security advancements, like Aduna's initiatives, can increase network usage and infrastructure demand.
- Telecom legislation can impact wireless infrastructure development and investment.
- Fiber infrastructure's strategic importance and expansion meet growing demand.
Understanding these trends helps cell site landlords make informed lease decisions, anticipate demand, and maximize cell site value. CSA offers expert guidance to navigate industry complexities, for more info vist cellsiteappraiser.com or call 213-986-7620
