FiberTower
(NASDAQ: FTWR) is the critical backhaul and access piece behind
several high growth trends:
- Mobile carrier migration to 3G
With the advent of 3G, backhaul demand is expected to quadruple
by 2010. FiberTower provides the capacity, cost, reliability
and reach to enable this migration.
- Enterprise adoption of Carrier Ethernet
Carrier Ethernet service revenue is expected to rise 10-fold
by 2010. FiberTower's premise access solutions reach the
vast majority of enterprises that can't get access to Carrier
Ethernet because of fiber constraints.
- Government mandate for diverse and redundant connectivity
Federal government requirements for government offices to
have physically diverse networks have recently been instituted.
FiberTower provides redundancy without the need for additional
wired installations.
- Proliferation of WiMax networks
Wireless backhaul of WiMax networks is expected to grow
exponentially through 2010.
