The press release doesn't reference at all, but Aeronet (the largest WISP in Puerto Rico, and an operator of gigabit class service in MDUs) has been testing Facebook/Terragraph 802.11ay 60 GHz based, point to multipoint last mile stuff for a while now. Very short range, high speed, high capacity. They use it in addition to a number of licensed band and 71-86 GHz PTP links. https://www.peeringdb.com/net/20459 Various 802.11ay based PtMP solutions are about to hit the market from 4 or 5 different competing vendors.

WASHINGTON, November 2, 2020—The Federal Communications Commission’s Wireline Competition Bureau today announced that funding through Stage 2 of the Uniendo a Puerto Rico Fund will result in all locations in Puerto Rico having access to fixed broadband service with speeds of at least 100 Mbps. And nearly one-third of those locations will have access to fixed broadband service with speeds of at least 1 Gbps.
Two winning applicants in the Uniendo a Puerto Rico Stage 2 Competitive Process submitted bids for $127.1 million in funding over 10 years covering more than 1.2 million locations through a competitive process that awarded support for fixed voice and broadband services based on the weighting of price and network performance, including speed, latency, usage allowance, and resiliency. Liberty Communications has committed to offering service to over 914,000 locations, and Puerto Rico Telephone Company will offer service to over 308,000 locations.
