The 100 Squared initiative will boost investment in broadband that will benefit network equipment vendors like Cisco Systems ( CSCO , Analyst Report ), Qualcomm ( QCOM , Analyst Report ) and Alcatel Lucent ( ALU , Analyst Report ). Moreover, tower companies such as American Tower ( AMT , Analyst Report ) should also benefit as more cellular towers will be built. Another ambitious proposal featuring in the FCC's six page executive summary is to provide Americans affordable access to ultra high speed broadband that delivers peak speeds of up to 1 gigabit per second (Gbps), nearly 100 times faster than today's regular broadband deployments.
