Crown Castle expects 5G ramp in 2H, no impact from COVID-19
Crown Castle did not see any direct impact from COVID-19 on its business in the first quarter, and expects a significant increase in activity throughout the second half of 2020 as carriers ramp up 5G deployments. The article includes commentary from Crown Castle CEO Jay Brown, who states: "Though, we have not seen a material impact from COVID-19 on our ability to deliver for our new small cell and fiber solutions customers, we could see some new challenges emerge with respect to getting construction crews to sites or traversing an already difficult zoning and permitting environment."
