of its role on the AT&T team selected by the U.S. government to
deliver America’s first nationwide wireless broadband public safety
network.
“We’re proud to further strengthen our relationship with
AT&T and continue our unique role supporting the delivery of
FirstNet services to public safety entities,” said Bruce Brda,
executive vice president, Products & Services, Motorola
Solutions. “We’ll work hand-in-hand with AT&T and first
responders to help provide a new generation of voice, data and
messaging capabilities for U.S. public safety. Our solutions can
help customers transform their communications into improved safety
for Americans and for first responders."
The FirstNet network will be a nationwide, interoperable network
dedicated to first responders when they need it. Working with
AT&T, Motorola Solutions will help deliver the broadband
devices and solutions that public safety needs. These will help
allow first responders to quickly access the vital information and
actionable intelligence that enable faster decisions, enhance
situational awareness and achieve better outcomes.
“Public safety is looking for advanced, interoperable
communications and collaboration capabilities,” said Chris Sambar,
senior vice president-FirstNet, AT&T Global Public Sector.
“Working with Motorola Solutions and other key team members, we
will help deliver broadband-enabled devices and apps that will be
certified for use by public safety seeking FirstNet services.”
Motorola Solutions’ LEX F10 device, designed specifically for
public safety, has been certified for the AT&T LTE network. The
company will also deliver a suite of mobile apps, such as mapping
and messaging, built specifically for the unique needs of public
safety. The suite will work virtually seamlessly between the
FirstNet network and land mobile radio networks (LMR) as well as
other software and services that support and enable the new
FirstNet communications capabilities.
Brda continued, “LMR and LTE networks will continue to coexist,
and helping first responders bridge those technologies with
interoperable solutions will be an important growth driver for our
company.”
A trusted partner for public safety customers for 90 years,
Motorola Solutions is proud to count FirstNet among the four
nationwide public safety LTE solutions that the company is playing
a key role in implementing.
