AT&T has an extensive network footprint and offers reliable secured connectivity, whether underlay or overlay, supported by managed security services for network, endpoints, and threat detection and response, which differentiates it in the global network services market. The company offers AT&T Dedicated Internet service across business tiers, offering dedicated bandwidth with a variety of dedicated speeds, from 2 Mbps to 1 Tbps, to meet the needs of a range of businesses. AT&T uses almost 100 third-party access providers to reach customers almost anywhere in the United States when AT&T Fiber is unavailable.

Amrit Singh, a Senior Industry Analyst at Frost & Sullivan, observed, "AT&T builds on its uniquely strong and extensive core network to offer products and services that support the network demands of different business segments. The company provides a dynamic overlay fabric that enables application-aware intelligent connectivity from cloud to edge, primarily driven by SD-WAN technologies."

AT&T Dedicated Internet service offers the flexibility and scalability needed to accommodate both current and future applications. It delivers symmetrical Internet speeds and comes with robust SLAs, including latency, jitter, and uptime, for an enhanced customer service experience. The AT&T wireless backup router delivers uninterrupted internet connectivity and provides 4G LTE-based wireless backup for automatic failover and failback so that key applications can run in the unlikely event of a connectivity failure. The company's business center portal is one of the most comprehensive in the industry, making it easy for AT&T Dedicated Internet customers to manage their wide array of services.

"AT&T's distinctive AT&T Dedicated Internet service has more features than competing solutions in the market, including a managed router, an interactive portal, 24/7 network management, automatic ticketing, flexible billing, security, free cyber threat reporting, traffic prioritization and global service level agreements," noted Singh.
