Cable becomes emerging special access source for CLECs, but trails AT&T and CenturyLink's ubiquity



Cable operators are in an interesting position to drive new competition in the wholesale special access market, giving CLECs the ability to connect their multi-site business customers in areas where they can't economically reach with their own facilities today.



The presence of cable operators could potentially shake up the wholesale special access space where incumbent telcos AT&T, Verizon and CenturyLink have enjoyed a monopoly position for decades.
