FirstNet® for First Responders

FirstNet is committed to providing coverage in rural areas that lack reliable broadband. Installing high-powered cellular towers in remote locations and relying on satellite broadcasting, FirstNet provides a truly nationwide public safety coverage solution.

With FirstNet, safety officers can send and receive data, location information, and video on a high-performance, low-latency network. This real-time information has proven crucial in improving  situational awareness that saves lives.

When emergencies occur, public safety agencies need to communicate without interruption. FirstNet provides emergency Preemption, Priority, and Quality of Service so our nation’s first responders can remain committed to their work of saving lives.

Large public and private events such as concerts, festivals, and sporting events draw thousands of people to them, potentially congesting local networks. With FirstNet, you’ll have the bandwidth you need to keep event goers safe by keeping communication open.

The FirstNet network is tailored to provide the specific applications, devices, and services public safety agencies need. This network delivers high-performance broadband to all public safety devices such as smartphones, laptops, and tablets.

First responders across the country need to consistently prepare for both manmade and natural disasters. When a disaster strikes, FirstNet helps to save lives by offering a reliable and secure communications system for emergency work crews.

As the only dedicated, high-speed network designated for use by emergency first responders and public safety agencies, FirstNet ensures that you can coordinate your efforts with other public safety agencies for a better, more effective response.
