OneLink Communications and Choice Cable TV will face off against the Telecommunications Regulatory Board in federal court this week over the agency’s decision to grant Puerto Rico Telephone (Claro) a cable television franchise license to offer Internet Protocol television services, which the cable providers claim is illegal.
Puerto Rico’s wireless market is gearing up for another year of growth, fueled by the explosion of 4G Long Term Evolution (LTE) digital technology that promises faster and better services.
