Source: FCC, National Broadband Map, data as of June 30, 2026. Share of the area's broadband serviceable locations where the provider reports service as of June 30, 2026. "Only wired option" is the share of locations where it is the single wired provider at 100/20 Mbps. Provider-reported and challengeable; speeds are advertised maximums, not measured; no prices. Satellite providers (HughesNet, Viasat, Starlink) report service at nearly every location and are left out of the table.
A share in this table is the share of locations where a company reports it could install service within ten business days, as filed with the FCC; anyone can challenge a filing on the FCC map. It describes the city's network, not one address, and none of it says anything about prices.
How much fiber, and whose
Fiber is reported at 31.4% of Phoenix locations, up from 25.9%2 on June 30, 2022. That is below Arizona as a whole (41.5%), the US (62.6%) and well below the median large city (74.0%); Phoenix has the 36th lowest1 fiber share among the 343 cities of 100,000 or more.

Two companies account for most of it:
- Cox reports fiber at 17.1% of locations and cable at most of the rest of its footprint.
- AT&T reports fiber at 15.7% of locations, part of it under the Quantum Fiber brand name, with advertised downloads of up to 10 Gbps1.
The two rarely overlap: two or more fiber providers are reported at only 1.6%1 of Phoenix locations.
The upload change that reached almost every home
The largest shift in Phoenix since 2022 is in upload speed, not in who serves the city. In June 2022, gigabit service with uploads of at least 100 Mbps (the FCC's 1,000/100 tier) was advertised at 0.3% of locations; by June 2026 it was 90.4%, an increase of 90.1 percentage points and the 35th highest rise among large cities. Wired service of at least 100/100 Mbps went from 25.9%2 to 90.1%1.

| Cable available | 97.6% | 76.3% | 76.3% | −21.3 pts |
The FCC's Arizona cable file shows where it comes from: Cox now reports most of its cable service in the state with a 100 Mbps maximum upload and a download of up to 2 Gbps. Cable's own share fell from 97.6%2 to 76.3%1 over the same period, while Cox's total footprint stayed near-universal: the locations it now files as fiber are no longer counted as cable. These are advertised maximums, not measured speeds.
A city with many wireless companies
Phoenix has more fixed wireless competition than most large cities. Licensed fixed wireless, which includes 5G home internet, is reported at 94.0% of locations by 5 companies, a count that ranks tied for 39th highest1 among large cities. Besides T-Mobile and Verizon, two local operators cover more than half the city:
- Tristate Wi-Fi by Wi-Fiber, Phoenix Internet reports service at 64.1% of locations, with 100/20 Mbps at 62.1%. It reported none in June 2022.
- AirFiber WISP reports 53.1%1, all at 100/20 Mbps or more, over unlicensed spectrum.
The national carriers report wide coverage but fewer fast connections: T-Mobile offers 100/20 Mbps at 22.9% of locations and Verizon at 26.4%1. More on the technology on the fixed wireless page.

| Licensed fixed wireless (incl. 5G home) | 94.0% | 89.8% |
| Unlicensed fixed wireless | 58.0% | 64.7% |
The copper telephone network is still in the data too. DSL is reported at 71.6% of locations, the 67th highest share among large cities, almost all of it CenturyLink's, with a fastest advertised download of 140 Mbps1.
One wire or two
Wired choice at 100/20 Mbps has widened since 2022, but most locations still have a single option. 71.5% have exactly one wired provider at that speed, down from 80.2%; 22.5%1 have two or more, up from 19.1%2.
Source: FCC, National Broadband Map, data as of June 30, 2026. Different wired providers (fiber, cable or DSL; FCC provider IDs) reporting 100 Mbps down and 20 Mbps up or more at the same location. Fixed wireless and satellite are not counted.

A small remainder has no wired 100/20 service at all: 28,952 locations, or 6.0%. Most of them have fixed wireless at that speed instead (5.7% of the city), and 2541 have only satellite.
Phoenix and the rest of the Valley
Within Arizona, fiber shares differ sharply from one large city to the next, even among cities served by the same cable company. Mesa (58.6%), Chandler (41.1%) and Gilbert (38.4%) all report more fiber than Phoenix, and so does Tucson (34.0%), whose largest provider is TWN Communications1 rather than Cox.

What Phoenix households subscribe to
The Census Bureau's 2025 American Community Survey counts households rather than locations. It found 96.1% of Phoenix households with a broadband subscription of any kind (margin of error ±0.6 percentage points), up from 84.9% in 2019. 76.9% subscribed to cable, fiber or DSL, and 16.4% relied only on a cellular data plan (margin of error ±1.1 percentage points), up from 12.3%5 in 2019. By point estimate, that cellular-only share ranks tied for 52nd highest4 among large cities.

Checking one address in Phoenix
The figures on this page describe the whole area. Which providers report service at a single home or apartment is shown only on the FCC's own map: search the address at broadbandmap.fcc.gov. If a provider is listed there but cannot actually connect you within ten business days, or the location is missing or misplaced, the map has a button to file a challenge; providers must respond, and corrections flow into later releases. Prices and plans are not part of the FCC data: each provider must show them on its broadband facts label at the point of sale.
