AT&T CFO: Fixed Wireless Expansion Still ‘Surgical’
He reiterated the carrier isn’t worried about satellite competition.
WASHINGTON, June 9, 2026 — AT&T is expanding its fixed wireless base to drive convergence after a slower start than the other national carriers. The company is still trying to be “surgical” about the process, CFO Pascal Desroches said Tuesday.
“Fixed wireless only makes sense if you are using your fallow capacity and don’t have to densify your network,” he said. “Once you do that, the returns on fixed wireless go down dramatically.”
