AT&T Investments Connect Communities
In Hawaii, we invested more than $150 million in our wireless network from 2019-2021.
We know how important it is for our customers to stay connected. That’s why we’re focused on boosting network reliability and capacity as we expand our network nationwide. This helps residents and visitors get the best possible experience over the AT&T network where they live, work and play, as well as supporting first responders on FirstNet®.
“AT&T is committed to investing in Hawaii to build state-of-the-art infrastructure that will keep people connected – from helping family and loved ones stay in touch to supporting first responder communications during a crisis,” said Elizabeth Songvilay, director, External Affairs, AT&T Hawaii. “By continuing to expand and improve our network, we are helping to ensure that our customers and communities across Hawaii stay connected.”
Committed to improving connectivity, our investment focuses on all network layers – from 5G to FirstNet.
