100+ mile hops with island repeaters that don’t even have a place to land a 
boat.  Not a great candidate for solar etc.

Too difficult for microwave?

Yes, but poor speed and of course lousy latency.

Does the ILEC already have a Satellite ground station? Can’t recall the details 
but I remember doing GIS work for the first ARRA award under the Obama stimulus 
and it was in Alaska. Rivada Networks rings a bell but I would have to go 
digging to be sure. There were a bunch of remote areas in the state and I think 
Satellite backhaul was the solution of choice. VSAT terminals I think.

 

Thank you,

The problem is that they are served by an ILEC.  Considering buying and 
upgrading the ILEC...  So starlink does not help with that.

That's above the 40th parallel. Just sell them Starlink. It might be happening 
sooner.

  "I need to get fiber 400 miles further than absolute nowhere, AK" is such a 
Chuck McCown problem.

   

  That Unalaska fiber may not be happening yet:

    I did.  None.  The USDA is working to get a fiber out to Unalaska but I 
need to go about 400 miles more.

    Also, did you check with https://www.submarinecablemap.com/ and 
https://www.infrapedia.com/ (needs login) to make sure that there isn't already 
cable nearby?

      There are big companies like Alcatel Submarine networks. For a smaller 
and likely easier-to-speak-with company, you can try Crosslake fiber. If you 
want general information on the undersea industry, I can send a number of 
informative links.

        Anyone know anyone that is related to placing undersea cables?  I need 
a quote for putting in some cable up in Alaska.  No idea where to start.
