The telecommunications industry is in a high cycle of demand for broadband infrastructure. 5G network builds, fixed wireless access deployments, fiber to the home, and digital divide solutions are all happening at the same time.

In this environment, questions often come up about the capability of the supply chain. Is there adequate equipment inventory, or are there shortages that will create long delivery times? How will installations and new service activation be affected?

There are misunderstandings about how the supply chain works, the companies involved, and the important role they play in enabling broadband deployments.

John Celentano, Inside Towers Business Editor discusses the wireless supply chain role and challenges with Chris Pleibel, Vice President-Infrastructure and Scott Stekr, Vice President-U.S. Engineering at PerfectVision.
