In our new Broadband Industry Innovator series, we talk to industry leaders to gain insight into the fast moving broadband marketplace. In our first interview, I talk with Mike Boehne and Ben Humphrey, both of Finley Engineering, to discuss the momentum we’re all feeling in the rural broadband industry.
As noted, a lot of that momentum is fueled by rural broadband funding programs like RDOF. Mike, Ben, and I talk about the impact of programs like RDOF and how it may result with much more gray hair for all of us, or maybe no “hair at all.” Additionally, Finley highlights the expanding agricultural IoT opportunity, which may eventually lead to “fiber-to-the cow” scenarios.
