Anterix (ATEX), NorthWestern Energy Announce Milestone 10 MHz 900 MHz Broadband Deployment

Anterix Inc. (NASDAQ:ATEX) is one of the tiny stocks that are on fire right now. On April 6, Anterix and NorthWestern Energy announced a milestone agreement for the first planned deployment of a 10 MHz broadband configuration in the 900 MHz band. This development follows the FCC’s unanimous February approval to expand Anterix’s spectrum allocation, nearly doubling the capacity available for utility providers.

NorthWestern Energy becomes the tenth utility to secure Anterix’s spectrum, highlighting a significant industry shift toward private, utility-controlled networks as a primary infrastructure for the energy transition. The expanded 10 MHz capacity is designed to provide a secure and reliable platform for modernizing critical energy infrastructure across vast and rugged terrains.

By using this broadband spectrum, NorthWestern Energy aims to achieve real-time control of remote distribution equipment and enhance situational awareness, particularly in high-risk wildfire areas. The network will also support redundant connectivity for field devices and more efficient service restoration during outages, ensuring safer and more reliable energy delivery for served communities. To support these deployments, Anterix Inc. (NASDAQ:ATEX) is offering an integrated suite of services, including its TowerX nationwide tower access and CatalyX turnkey connectivity management.
