That moment telecom employees don't realize 5G isn't magic and still relies on fiber ... biggest assets CTL has are fiber-to-tower and copper/fiber infrastructure.

They aren’t too cheap they just pay the executives way too much for their value. That place s—s and Management is worthless! Every idea they come up with makes no sense what so ever. One would think that since Executives are in charge that they get pointed at for the failures but no sir! They just cut jobs to legitimize their incompetence! Never work for this company as they are worthless greedy elitists!

What is the quality of said fiber? Will it pass characterization testing to match the needs of 5G? Lambda Extreme?

Company is no longer placing residential fiber in new developments,if your work is not close to fiber to towers, switches and lev 3 dsl copper will go away quick. And so will remaining work force, contractors will not even survive this new era.

I think the point the OP is making is that 5G will be a serious competitor for CTL
