WIA meaning in Community ?

The Wireless Infrastructure Association (WIA), formerly known as PCIA, is an American trade association for wireless providers and companies that build cell phone towers, rooftop wireless sites, and other facilities that transmit wireless communication signals. The Washington Post described the industry as "the people who build all those cell towers so you can actually make those calls, download that data." These technologies are collectively referred to as "wireless telecommunications infrastructure."

Examples of companies that are members of WIA include American Tower, Boingo Wireless, Graybar, SOLiD, and Advanced RF Technologies. In all, member companies own and run more than 125,000 towers and antennas in the U.S.

WIA advocates for a variety of issues before the federal government, on topics such as broadband deployment (the act of building wireless broadband infrastructure in the United States), utility pole attachment (adding wireless signal components to utility poles that already exist), wireless network resiliency, public safety, and wireless competition. Every year, WIA hosts a trade show called the Connectivity Expo, also known as Connect (X). Previously WIA hosted the Wireless Infrastructure Show.
