AT&T* was busy in New Jersey this year, expanding its wireless network with several new cell sites across the state. Additionally, even more new sites are planned to come online in the coming weeks.
In total, this dedicated network expansion and upgrades are giving residents, first responders, businesses and visitors a big boost in their wireless connectivity. The enhanced coverage and capacity will help provide a better network experience to customers. We’re working to not only boost network reliability and capacity but also expand broadband nationwide to help bridge the digital divide.
In New Jersey, new sites are boosting coverage in:
- Brielle
- Kinnelon
- Rockaway
- Spotswood
- Hillside
- Trenton
- Bordentown
- Camden
- Cape May
We understand how a connection can make the difference. That’s why our mission is to bring connectivity to everyone, no matter where they live or where they come from. In New Jersey, we invested more than $1.9 billion in our network infrastructure from 2019-2023.
“At AT&T, we’re continuing to invest in our mobile broadband network in communities across New Jersey to make wireless connections easier for residents, visitors, businesses and first responders. These new sites connect our customers to greater possibility,” said John Emra, President, AT&T Atlantic Region.
