Rural telco Nex-Tech met with FCC Commissioners Ajit Pai and Mike O'Rielly and an aide to Chairman Tom Wheeler to discuss the need for stand-alone broadband support (http://bit.ly/1cn2ks0). “Providing support for loops that are used to provide standalone broadband services would promote and accelerate the ongoing IP evolution,” it said Wednesday. Nex-Tech also discussed “continuing concerns” with regression analysis-based caps on high-cost loop support, and urged the commissioners “to ensure that greater visibility and predictability can be obtained as soon as possible.”
