AT&T spreads its LTE network to Stephenville, Texas
"We continue to see demand for mobile Internet skyrocket, and our 4G LTE network in Stephenville responds to what customers want from their mobile experience — more, faster, reliable, and on the best devices," said Hardmon Williams, AT&T Vice-President/General Manager North Texas.
As a part of the VIP investment plan, AT&T will also deploy nearly 10,000 new macro cell sites and more than 40,000 smaller ones all over the USA by the end of 2015. The telecommunication giant will add more than 1,000 new Distributed Antenna Systems, which are aimed to increase the coverage of AT&T's wireless network by utilizing “multiple small antennas to maximize coverage and speed within stadiums, convention centers, office buildings, hotels and other areas where traditional coverage methods are challenging“. This Wi-Fi network consists of more than 32,000 Hot Spots, which are placed at various public places across the country and can be accessed free of charge by AT&T's customers.
In 2013, AT&T has expanded the coverage of its LTE network to more than 30 new locations in Texas, some of which are Austin, Beaumont, Corsicana, Dallas-Fort Worth, El Paso, Houston, Jacksonville, Lubbock, Odessa, Palestine, Paris, San Antonio, Wichita Falls, etc.
"Fast, reliable connectivity is essential to both quality of life and competitiveness at work," said Dave Nichols, AT&T Texas State President. "No one understands that better than we do, and no one is doing more than AT&T to mobilize a world that works for people in Texas. With initiatives like Project Velocity IP, we're working to ensure that Texas consumers and businesses remain at the leading edge of broadband services."
