The purpose of the grant is to complete the transition of the statewide public safety microwave system from analog to digital allowing broadband access to anchor institutions and allowing the state and its partners (through sharing agreements) to support broadband service in un-served, underserved and tribal areas. A last mile component will deploy 700 MHz public safety broadband service.
