Fixed Wireless Access: Revolutionizing Rural Internet Connectivity
Let's talk about Fixed Wireless Access (FWA). You may have heard about it in the news
recently, but the truth is, it's been around for over a decade. FWA uses wireless technology to
deliver high-speed internet to areas where traditional wired connectivity is either too expensive
or impossible to deploy. It's been a game-changer for rural areas, where internet access has
historically been limited or non-existent.
FWA is not a new technology, and it's not a magic bullet. It's simply one tool in the toolbox for improving internet connectivity. FWA uses point-to-point or point-to-multipoint connections to deliver high-speed internet to areas where traditional wired connectivity is too expensive or impossible to deploy. This technology has been a game-changer for rural areas, where internet access has historically been limited or non-existent. FWA has allowed people in these areas to work from home, access online education, and participate in e-commerce and other online activities.
