AT&Ts 4G Network

AT&Ts innovation and investment has resulted in the nations largest 4G network, covering 288 million

people with ultra-fast speeds and a more consistent user experience. Our 4G LTE network delivered

faster average download speeds than any of our competitors inPCWorlds most recent 13-market

speed tests.

AT&Ts 4G LTE network delivers speeds faster than many other mobile Internet technologies, as well

as multiple innovations that optimize the network for performance. Our networks radio components are

placed close to the antenna at most cell sites, instead of inside the base station, which helps minimizepower loss between the base station and antenna and, in turn, improves the performance of our 4G

LTE network. The network also is designed with its core elements distributed across the country, which

helps reduce latency, or the delay when using the Internet, because your request isnt traveling as far.

Even as AT&T continues to expand its 4G LTE coverage, customers can get 4G speeds outside of 4G

LTE areas on our 4G HSPA+ network, unlike some competitors, where smartphone customers may fall

back to slower 3G technologies when outside of LTE coverage.

AT&Ts focus to deliver the best possible mobile Internet experience goes beyond 4G to embrace

additional connection technologies. AT&T operatesthe nations largest Wi-Fi network**** including

more than 32,000 AT&T Wi-Fi Hot Spots at popular restaurants, hotels, bookstores and retailers, and

provides access to more than 402,000 hotspots globally through roaming agreements. Most AT&T

smartphone customers get access to our entire national Wi-Fi network at no additional cost, and Wi-Fi

usage doesnt count against customers monthly wireless data plans.

AT&T also is a leading developer of Distributed Antenna Systems, which utilize multiple small antennasto maximize coverage and speed within stadiums, convention centers, office buildings, hotels and other

areas where traditional coverage methods are challenging.
