Cambium does it all for you. you turn up CBRS in Cnmaestro, then select the SAS administrator. You get 1 bill, then they pay the administrator. You still get an account to interact directly with the administrator. They very much stress to choose wisely upfront, changing administrators mid stream can be a nightmare they said, all of your grants have to be revoked and redone. It was brought up using this sas administrator account for non cambium, but that may cause weird billing issues, so dealing directly with the administrator would probably be best on that. It may be worth turning up cnmaestro, requesting CBRS and picking the vendor to get the account set up correctly anyway. One thing they did say too is that delinquencies are a manual process, so if you have some weird billing thing, your SAS account wont be suspended (assuming cambium pays the bill). But the point is you wont wake up one morning to a dead network because cambium lost an ippay token
