Queen City to be wireless world throne room during Connectivity Expo; FCC chair to speak
CHARLOTTE – The Queen City is set to host the first-ever Connect (X), a premier wireless and telecommunications conference organized by the Wireless Infrastructure Association (WIA) next week at the Charlotte Convention Center. The head of the FCC is among the list of scheduled presenters.
“This is an incredibly exciting time in the world of mobile connectivity,” said Jonathan Adelstein, president and CEO of WIA in a statement. “Our industry’s ability to efficiently deploy broadband networks is key to the future of the United States.”
According to organizers, Connect (X) is designed to serve all elements of the expanding and evolving wireless ecosystem—from the macro structures that stand high above the ground, to the miles and miles of fiber networks below the ground, to the technology driving the ongoing network densification in our cities, and to the technology embedded in our cars.
