Telecom 2014: The top 12 Stories Are All "To Be Continued"

If there is any single common thread among the top 12 telecom 2014 stories, it’s this: From open regulatory issues such as Network Neutrality and the Connect America Fund to ongoing trends like gigabit networks, nearly all of these stories are “to be continued.”

The twelve featured stories of 2014 are: Gigabit networks see strong growth, major pay TV mergers pending, Net Neutrality is a highly volatile topic, Windstream plans ground breaking REIT spinoff, TDM-to-IP transition is top of mind, Connect America Fund implementation creeps along, E-rate reforms, wireless price wars, spectrum value skyrockets, over-the-top providers as cable companies, municipal broadband networks, and Sprint seeks rural partners. Clearly 2015 already is shaping up to be an exciting year in telecom. [Dec 23]
