If someone were to make a project management PERT chart for the commercial deployment of wireless communications in the CBRS band, it would be a complex one, with numerous interrelated tasks. Nevertheless, the pieces seem to be falling into place for some CBRS commercial deployments soon, possibly as early as later this year.
Those were Telecompetitor’s key takeaways after talking last week to Dave Wright, president of the CBRS Alliance and a knowledgeable source about all things CBRS. The CBRS Alliance is a certification and marketing organization focused on using LTE technology in the CBRS band to support a range of use cases, including fixed and mobile service, neutral host (providing infrastructure for use by multiple network operators) and private LTE (enterprise networks based on LTE technology). The alliance also is responsible for the OnGo brand created for the CBRS band.
“One of the things we think is unique [about the CBRS band] is the variety of use cases,” commented Wright.
