Resound Networks - Oklahoma
Resound Networks proposes to deploy a licensed fixed wireless broadband network in Oklahoma County to serve 2,917 total locations, including 1,291 underserved residences, 341 unserved residences, and 1,285 Community Anchor Institutions. These NET(s) target edge-of-county zones and low-density pockets surrounding Oklahoma Cityâ€™s urban core, where affordability barriers, legacy copper infrastructure, and inconsistent wireless performance have left households and institutions without access to modern broadband.\\n\\nThe deployment will rely on six tower assetsâ€”one active and five leasedâ€”strategically located to provide line-of-sight coverage and network redundancy throughout the service area. These towers have been modeled using high-resolution terrain data and RF propagation software to ensure strong signal delivery to all proposed NET(s). If new vertical infrastructure is needed to maintain capacity and meet uptime guarantees, Resoundâ€™s tower development agreements provide for immediate construction mobilization, even within higher-density regulatory environments.\\n\\nThe network will be powered by Resoundâ€™s licensed fixed wireless platformâ€”an enterprise-grade architecture currently supporting gigabit-tier service across multiple RDOF territories. This platform supports dynamic provisioning across varied terrain and subscriber densities, and includes advanced features like centralized diagnostics, congestion-aware spectrum management, and automated failover protocols. The system is optimized for both high-density institutional clusters and lower-density residential zones.\\n\\nProject mobilization in Oklahoma County will begin within 90 days of award. Engineering, permitting, environmental reviews, and utility coordination will begin immediately, with construction following a highly structured rollout plan to ensure minimal disruption in more regulated urban-fringe areas. Community Anchor Institutionsâ€”including schools, workforce development centers, nonprofit clinics, and municipal agenciesâ€”will be prioritized for early connection to accelerate economic and social service access.\\n\\nThis project represents a strategic expansion of BEAD infrastructure into underserved portions of Oklahomaâ€™s most populous county, ensuring even its fringe communities have access to broadband that is fast, reliable, and sustainable into the future.
