This bill requires the Commerce Department's Assistant Secretary for Communications and Information to study the various technologies used to provide broadband internet access across the United States. The study must analyze seven different broadband technologies—fiber-optic cable, cable modem, digital subscriber line, fixed wireless, 4G and 5G mobile wireless, and both low-earth orbit and geostationary orbit satellite—examining factors like the workforce needed for deployment, deployment costs, performance characteristics such as speed and latency, equipment lifespan, and consumer costs. The bill affects broadband policy planning and technology assessment efforts within the federal government. The Assistant Secretary must complete the study and submit a report to Congress within one year of the law's enactment. No specific funding amount is designated in the legislation.
