Dover, Del. (June 16, 2017) - Denis Dunn, president, AT&T Delaware, applauded the Delaware
Legislature for passing House Bill 189 - the Advanced Wireless Infrastructure Investment Act.
The measure streamlines the permitting process and includes other provisions that will expedite the
installation of "small cell" wireless infrastructure.
Small cells are shoebox-sized antennas that can be affixed to existing structures such as traffic signals,
buildings and street lights. The size and flexibility of small cells helps AT&T target areas needing
additional capacity in a way that is low profile and unobtrusive.
Small cells will enable faster wireless Internet speeds, provide more and targeted network capacity for
things like streaming movies or music, and lay the foundation for technologies of the future such as
5G, smart cities, and connected cars and devices.
"Delaware's legislators understand that a strong wireless infrastructure is central to the state's
economic competitiveness; enhances the delivery of government services through 'smart city'
technology; and lays the foundation that will support technologies of the future. This legislation will
encourage companies like AT&T to invest more in wireless infrastructure in the First State. I applaud the
legislature for moving so quickly to pass this legislation," Dunn said.
The bill unanimously passed both chambers and is on its way to Gov. Carney's desk.
