AT&T Launches 5G Evolution in Johnstown
This Lays the Foundation for Future Mobile 5G Wireless
Connectivity Locally
JOHNSTOWN, Pa., Oct. 4, 2018 – AT&T* is proud to make the best network according to
America’s biggest test1 even better by announcing the launch of 5G Evolution network
technologies in Johnstown today. This is one of the 239 markets where this technology is
live. We plan to offer 5G Evolution in over 400 markets by the end of the year. In the first
half of 2019 we plan to offer nationwide coverage, making 5G Evolution available to over
200 million people.
5G Evolution markets are locations where we’ve deployed technologies that enable a peak
theoretical speed for capable devices of at least 400 megabits per second.2 With 5G
Evolution technologies, AT&T is laying the foundation for our path to mobile 5G. With 5G
Evolution, residents and businesses of Johnstown will experience the next generation of
mobile connectivity.
Check out this blog from Kevin Petersen, senior vice president of device and network
experiences, to learn where 5G Evolution technologies are available, a list of capable
devices and more about how these technologies continue to lay the foundation for mobile
5G.
“Our 5G Evolution technology boosts the existing LTE network and primes it for the future
of connectivity,” said JimPenna, regional director for AT&T External Affairs in Western
Pennsylvania. “We can enable faster speeds now, and upgrade to 5G when it’s ready. We’re
pleased to bring these advances into more of our local communities today.”
And, as mobile data usage continues to rise – an increase of more than 360,000% on our
network in the past 7 years – our investment in 5G Evolution is crucial to deliver standards-
based mobile 5G networks starting in 2018. We plan to introduce standards-based mobile
5G in 12 cities this year, reaching a total of at least 19 cities in early 2019.
We’ve invested more than $725 million in our Pennsylvania wireless and wired networks
during 2015-2017. These investments bring the latest in connectivity to people across the
state and boost reliability, coverage, speed and overall performance for residents and
businesses. We’ve also improved critical services that support public safety and first
responders.
