One X+,Samsung ATIV smart PCandASUS VivoTab RT.
Faster response time.LTE technologyoffers lower latency, or the processing time it takes to
move data through a network, such as how long it takes to start downloading a webpage or fileonce youve sent the request. Lower latency helps to improve services like mobile gaming, two-
way video calling and telemedicine.

More efficient use of spectrum. Wireless spectrum is a finite resource, and LTE uses
spectrum more efficiently than other technologies, creating more space to carry data traffic andservices and to deliver a better network experience.
Weve seen positive response from customers on our 4G LTE launch, and as todays expansion
shows, were continuing our rollout of fast 4G LTE speeds to more areas of Arlington, said J. Michael
Schweder, president of AT&T Mid-Atlantic. As the Rosslyn business and residential community
continues to expand, were proud to help our customers in the area make the most out of mobility with
our blazing-fast wireless network speeds.
AT&Ts 4G Network
AT&Ts innovation and investment has resulted in the nations largest 4G network, covering 288 million
people with ultra-fast speeds and a more consistent user experience. Thats coverage in 3,000 more
4G cities and towns than Verizon.** Our 4G LTE network delivered faster average download speeds
than any of our competitors inPCWorlds most recent 13-market speed tests.
AT&Ts 4G LTE network delivers speeds up to 10 times faster than 3G***, as well as multipleinnovations that optimize the network for performance. Our networks radio components are placed
close to the antenna at most cell sites, instead of inside the base station, which helps minimize power
loss between the base station and antenna and, in turn, improves the performance of our 4G LTE
network. The network also is designed with its core elements distributed across the country, which
helps reduce latency, or the delay when using the Internet, because your request isnt traveling as far.
Even as AT&T continues to expand its 4G LTE coverage, customers can get 4G speeds outside of 4G
LTE areas on our 4G HSPA+ network, unlike competitors, where smartphone customers fall back toslower 3G technologies when outside of LTE coverage.
AT&Ts focus to deliver the best possible mobile Internet experience goes beyond 4G to embrace
additional connection technologies. AT&T operatesthe nations largest Wi-Fi network**** including

more than 32,000 AT&T Wi-Fi Hot Spots at popular restaurants, hotels, bookstores and retailers across
the country. Most AT&T smartphone customers get access to our entire national Wi-Fi network at noadditional cost, and Wi-Fi usage doesnt count against customers monthly wireless data plans.
AT&T also is a leading developer of Distributed Antenna Systems, which utilize multiple small antennas
to maximize coverage and speed within stadiums, convention centers, office buildings, hotels and other
areas where traditional coverage methods are challenging.
Over the past five years, AT&T invested more than $115 billion into operations and into acquiring
spectrum and other assets that have enhanced our wireless and wired networks. Since 2007, AT&Thas invested more capital into the U.S. economy than any other public company. In a July 2012 report,
the Progressive Policy Institute ranked AT&T No. 1 on its list of U.S. Investment Heroes.
