The AT&T version of the Samsung Galaxy S5 has paid its compulsory visit with the FCC. The documentation reveals that the phone offers connectivity to LTE bands 2, 4, 15 and 17 and support for the sensors that will be used for the heart rate monitor. Samsung has requested confidentiality for 180 days, although the phone will launch well before then.
In fact, the Samsung Galaxy S5 has an April 11th release date in 150 countries worldwide. The Korean manufacturer has added IP67 certification for water and dust resistance, the aforementioned heart rate monitor (suppose your pulse quickens from holding such a high-end phone?) and a fingerprint scanner embedded in the home button. The device should also support AT&T's carrier aggregated LTE-Advanced signal.
