TOPEKA, Kan., Feb. 5, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- AT&T* today
announced that it has added 17,163 additional business customer
locations to its fiber network in Kansas since 2012, when the company began its
aggressive fiber expansion program.
Nationally, the expansion helped extend AT&T's U.S. fiber
network another 76,000 route miles, bringing the total to nearly
500,000 miles and reaching 1 million new business customer
locations. AT&T offers business customers high-speed Internet
products on its fiber network in every major metropolitan area in
the company's 21-state footprint.
"AT&T business fiber's bandwidth and blazing-fast speeds are
helping more Kansas companies than
ever successfully compete in a global marketplace," said
Mike Scott, president of AT&T
Kansas. "Our ongoing investment in expanding the fiber network in
Kansas is possible in large part
because of pro-investment policies championed at the local and
state levels by our elected leaders."
The AT&T fiber network provides the bandwidth needed to
support data intensive services such as video, collaboration, cloud
services and more through products such as Ethernet, Virtual
Private Networking, Managed Internet Service, AT&T
GigaPowerSM and AT&T Business Fiber. Customers can
complement their high-speed Internet with network security options

more agility. Our fiber network gives them the capabilities they
need to support mission-critical business functions both now and in
the future," said Steve McGaw,
