AT&T Launches Project AirGig

Transformative technology

Last fall, AT&T unveiled Project AirGig, a transformative technology from AT&T Labs that could one day deliver low-cost, multi-gigabit wireless internet speeds using power lines.

One of the most ambitious and inventive projects in AT&T Labs history.

AT&T has over 200 patents and patent applications for Project AirGig and we plan to begin field trials in 2017.

The idea: where there are power lines, there can be broadband.

Results from our outdoor labs testing have been encouraging, especially as you think about where we’re heading in a 5G world.
