Pushing FCC to Reform Special Access Market


Author: John Eggerton

Public interest groups have joined with wireless companies, computers companies and others to push the Federal Communications Commission to reform the special access market. They have formed NoChokePoints Coalition, which they unveiled Monday. They argue that the dominance of incumbent local exchange carriers (ILECs) like AT&T and Verizon, has led to a lack of a "robust and competitive market" for high-capacity broadband service given the ILEC's dominance in the business market.
