Should Bandwidth Be the 4th Utility?

Electrical Network (Wires and Transformer)• Owned by building owner• Buildings manage and maintain electrical wires• 3rd parties maintain equipment / manage network• No revenue sharing with owner

Data Network (Wires and Switch)• Owned by building owner• Buildings can manage and maintain data wires• 3rd party can maintain equipment / manage network• Network management costs are minimal• No revenue sharing with ownerh

The Wi-Fi Commercial Market Is Rapidly Developing

• Wi-Fi Operators– Want to Manage Networks, Charge for

Usage and Share Profits, If Any– Are Beginning a “Pay for Service”

Model at Airports, Hotels, Public Places– Are Unsure of Profitability– Charge the End User - $20 Per Month– Provide “Closed” Networks
