Available tools 4

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

broadband

get_broadband_by_location

Get broadband providers and availability at a specific lat/lon location. Returns a list of broadband providers serving the location with their advertised download/upload speeds and technology types. Includes BEAD classification (unserved/underserved/served) based on max available speeds. NOTE: The FCC Broadband Map API has bot protection and may reject requests. If you get an error, the API endpoint may have changed. The FCC updates this API frequently without notice. Args: latitude: Location latitude (e.g. 38.8977 for Washington DC). longitude: Location longitude (e.g. -77.0365 for Washington DC). technology_code: Filter by technology (0=All, 10=Copper, 40=Cable, 50=Fiber, 60=Satellite, 70=Fixed Wireless). speed_download: Minimum download speed in Mbps (default 25). speed_upload: Minimum upload speed in Mbps (default 3). as_of_date: BDC filing date in YYYY-MM-DD format (default 2024-06-30).

get_broadband_summary_by_county

Get broadband availability statistics for a county. Returns aggregated broadband data including provider counts, technology availability, and BEAD-relevant metrics (unserved/underserved/served location percentages). NOTE: County-level summary endpoints may not be directly available in all API versions. This tool attempts multiple endpoint patterns. Args: county_fips: 5-digit county FIPS code (e.g. '11001' for Washington DC, '53033' for King County WA). Always a string, never an integer. speed_download: Minimum download speed threshold in Mbps (default 25). speed_upload: Minimum upload speed threshold in Mbps (default 3). as_of_date: BDC filing date in YYYY-MM-DD format (default 2024-06-30).

get_broadband_summary_by_state

Get state-level broadband availability summary. Returns aggregated broadband statistics for the state including provider counts and technology deployment. Useful for BEAD program analysis to identify states with significant unserved/underserved populations. Args: state_fips: 2-digit state FIPS code (e.g. '53' for Washington, '11' for DC). Always a string, never an integer. speed_download: Minimum download speed threshold in Mbps (default 25). speed_upload: Minimum upload speed threshold in Mbps (default 3). as_of_date: BDC filing date in YYYY-MM-DD format (default 2024-06-30).

providers

get_providers_by_county

Get list of broadband providers serving a county. Returns provider names, technology types, and speed tiers available in the specified county. Useful for BEAD applications to identify which providers serve an area and what technologies they deploy. Args: county_fips: 5-digit county FIPS code (e.g. '11001' for Washington DC, '53033' for King County WA). Always a string, never an integer. technology_code: Filter by technology (0=All, 10=Copper, 40=Cable, 50=Fiber, 60=Satellite, 70=Fixed Wireless). speed_download: Minimum download speed threshold in Mbps (default 25). speed_upload: Minimum upload speed threshold in Mbps (default 3). as_of_date: BDC filing date in YYYY-MM-DD format (default 2024-06-30).

FCC Broadband Map — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can FCC Broadband Map do?

It exposes 4 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_broadband_by_location, get_broadband_summary_by_county, get_broadband_summary_by_state, get_providers_by_county. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →

Is FCC Broadband Map working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 561 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect FCC Broadband Map?

Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does FCC Broadband Map need an API key?

No. FCC Broadband Map completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 4 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is FCC Broadband Map?

It answers our handshake in 561 ms on average, which is faster than 23% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
