US Cable has a strong hand in mobile, Recon Analytics' Roger Entner says

Comcast and Charter Communications just came off a third quarter in which they added a record 729,000 mobile lines, extending their grand total to 9.61 million. As home broadband subscriber growth slows, mobile has clearly become their new success story.

Altice USA's mobile service, coming way of a new MVNO deal with T-Mobile, has had more limited success, but the operator is still adding mobile lines. Meanwhile, Cox Communications and WideOpenWest have just entered the game, and the National Content & Technology Cooperative (NCTC) is crafting MVNO deals that will enable its membership of 700-plus independent cable operators and telcos to enter the mobile mix as well.

Roger Entner, the founder and lead analyst of Recon Analytics and all-around mobile industry expert, believes cable is well-positioned to keep growing the mobile side of its business.
