ATN International provides update on legacy lead-sheathed cables

In response to recent media reporting in the United States, ATN International completed a preliminary assessment of its communications network regarding the presence of legacy lead-sheath telecom cables in its network. ATN estimates that in the United States and its territories, its network contains less than 10 miles of lead-sheathed copper cables and outside of the United States just over 20 miles of lead-sheathed copper cables, substantially all of which are within conduit buried underground and to its knowledge, are not located underwater. ATN continues to prioritize the safety of its employees, customers, and communities where it operates.
