DALLAS — AT&T continues to build-out its all-fiber network for the delivery of high-speed broadband and as critical infrastructure for its 5G services, reportedly to a dozen markets before the end of this year, according to lightreading.com.

Recently the company launched 1 Gig service in South Bend, Ind., boosting its total Fiber-to-the-Home reach to 71 U.S. metro regions.
