AT&T. Verizon. T-Mobile. The Tier 1s are driving open access adoption in the U.S., and the economics are forcing the conversation.
COS Systems CRO Isak Finér told Fierce Network last week:
"Open access is expanding like wildfire, and it's driven by the Tier 1s. If you've built a network and you have a 30% take rate, the economics aren't great. And if someone is coming in and building another network on top of it hoping to get 30%, that's going to be very difficult. Instead of overbuilding and wasting money, people are understanding it makes more sense to share this infrastructure."
Most of our customers today are in the U.S. and Canada. We're watching this shift happen in real time.
