United States federal funding for broadband deployment projects will reach $50.1 billion in 2022. Access to those funds requires compliance with rigorous speed and latency performance standards set out by the FCC. Applicants must successfully complete these tests or risk losing up to 25 percent of their monthly funding from these programs. Right now, more than 50 percent of federal funding recipients turn to Calix for mandatory FCC broadband performance testing and related services. With the third wave of funding testing underway, it is more important than ever to successfully complete testing now and avoid penalties later that could impact network expansion, subscriber satisfaction and revenue growth.
