Why are electrical co-ops becoming Internet Service Providers? They have the infrastructure in place. They are trusted by their members. They are committed to serving their communities. Open disaggregated networking is the perfect candidate for broadband deployments as it reduces CAPEX and Operational expenses, the hardware is more readily available, the technology is there to enable multitenancy on the network and it offers new revenue streams.
Listen to our latest podcast to learn how to ease the transition from Electric Co-Op to ISP.
