As the carrier activates the FirstNet LTE network dedicated for use by first responders, while simultaneously augmenting its own consumer-facing network capabilities, AT&T reports Band 14 support has been added to around 2,500 wireless sites around the country.
AT&T plans to invest $40 billion of its own money in FirstNet’s network over the life of the 25-year contract with the First Responders Network Authority, which has allocated $6.5 billion for the contract.
