15. FirstNet Background
FirstNet seeks to fulfill the 9/11 Commission’s recommendation of establishing a dedicated, reliable network for advanced data communications nationwide
During emergencies, public safety personnel need priority access and preemption, which are not available on commercial networks
4 Million potential FirstNet public safety users nationwide

16. What FirstNet Will Provide to Locals
The FirstNet network will be used to send data, video, images and text
It will also carry location information & eventually support streaming of video
Imagine a day when a single communications network will be used to dispatch EMS personnel, a medical helicopter, police officers, and fire personnel from different jurisdictions all at the same time, utilizing voice, video, and data at broadband speeds.
