In 2018, AT&T added over 3 million locations to AT&T Fiber coverage, now reaching more than 10 million locations across 84 metros nationwide.
AT&T Fiber will reach at least 14 million locations by mid-2019. AT&T is the largest provider of fiber across the 21 states offering home internet service.
AT&T claims that it is also the nation’s largest provider of fiber for business services, covering more than 2 million business customer locations – with another 6 million locations within 1000 feet of fiber.
AT&T is making huge investment in fiber because the mobile 5G relies on a quality fiber connection to the wireless towers or small cells.
