Our mission is to provide dedicated mission-critical solutions, advanced services, applications and purpose-built devices that modernize public safety – wherever the next call takes you. With FirstNet, you get the reliable, highly-secure, prioritized coverage you need – when you need it – never competing with commercial traffic.
