AT&T to Deliver U-verse with AT&T GigaPower in Miami

MIAMI — AT&T confirmed it will expand its ultra-fast AT&T GigaPower network to the city of Miami. The all-fiber network will provide services featuring symmetrical upload and download broadband speeds up to 1 gigabit per second (Gbps), and AT&T’s most advanced TV services to consumers and small businesses.

AT&T is deploying additional fiber and electronics to the existing network in Miami to meet the growing demand for ultra-fast broadband. The network enhancements will enable customers to have access to AT&T’s fastest Internet speeds available to consumers.

Upgraded TV Services
Local residents and small business customers on the AT&T GigaPower network will also experience cutting-edge TV services with the ability to watch and record five simultaneous HD streams, and its largest capacity DVR at one terabyte of storage.

“Miami is proud to be the first city in Florida and the metropolitan Miami area where AT&T has announced it will build the AT&T GigaPower network,” said Mayor Tomas Regalado. “The deployment of ultra-high-speed broadband service will support innovation, our businesses, and our residents and will eventually further economic development in our community.”

On April 21, 2014, AT&T announced a major initiative to expand its ultra-fast AT&T GigaPower fiber network to up to 100 candidate cities and municipalities across 25 markets nationwide. As part of that announcement, AT&T said it is also considering other Miami areas – Hialeah, Hollywood, Homestead, Opa-Locka, and Pompano Beach as candidate municipalities for the service.

The U-verse with AT&T GigaPower network launched to tens of thousands of households in Austin and surrounding communities in December 2013 and customers in the Austin area are able to access speeds up to 1 gigabit per second. Since consumer demand has exceeded expectations, AT&T will expand the network to double the households in the Austin area this year and will launch the all-fiber AT&T GigaPower network in Dallas and Fort Worth this summer. Plans have also been announced to deliver U-verse with AT&T GigaPower to Charlotte, Greensboro, Houston, Nashville, Overland Park, Kan., Raleigh-Durham, San Antonio, and Winston-Salem.
