Summary
Smartlink’s Annapolis headquarters is getting Comcast Business private wireless that combines Neutral Host cellular coverage with a dedicated CBRS network on one managed platform.
The setup replaces separate distributed antenna and private-network vendors, letting Smartlink run cameras, access control and occupancy sensors through a single enterprise connectivity system.
Comcast is pitching the project as a repeatable model after similar deployments at the University of Virginia, Seattle’s Sound Hotel and Rocket Arena, signaling growth beyond residential cable.
$21.9 billion in 2025 free cash flow gives Comcast room to invest, but broadband subscriber losses, a $117.5 million Xfinity breach settlement and an $8.6 billion Sky writedown still weigh on the broader story.
