Federated Wireless has announced the submission of a supplement to its Initial Commercial Deployment (ICD) application to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), expanding it to include planned deployments from 25 customers spanning all 50 states and the District of Columbia, the company said.

This ICD application supplement signals accelerated industry adoption of CBRS across vertical markets as full commercialization approaches and a wide-range of Band 48 compatible devices are introduced.

The Federated Wireless Spectrum-as-a-Service offering brings the benefits of interference-free spectrum to a variety of customers and locations with multiple business models.

Leading the Wave into new markets that are developing faster than originally predicted, Federated Wireless is a founding member of the Utility Broadband Alliance (UBBA), which was formally announced this month. As a founding member, Federated Wireless will work with fellow members to explore how CBRS can be used to meet utility companies' high-speed connectivity needs for applications like cost effective and secure energy monitoring and wildfire risk mitigation.

Federated Wireless is the wireless industry through the shared spectrum revolution, eliminating the decades-old problem of spectrum scarcity. The company offers the industry's only end-to-end spectrum controller, enabling government and commercial users to securely share the same spectrum band. Headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, Federated Wireless is removing the multi-billion dollar price tag associated with spectrum access, allowing for the creation of new wireless carriers and business models.
