FirstNet<\/span><\/a> is the first nationwide network dedicated to public safety to help law enforcement, fire service, EMS, and first responders to do their jobs safely and effectively.<\/span><\/p>\n

FirstNet Coverage and Usage:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Today, FirstNet wireless coverage reaches more than 99 percent of Americans. According to AT&T (Public Safety Partner), when the network is fully deployed, it will extend the range to 2.74 million square miles, covering 76.2 percent of the continental United States and the District of Columbia. The same services, support, and capabilities provided on the mainland will be provided to public safety responders in Hawaii, Alaska FirstNet, and all five of the U.S. island territories.<\/span><\/p>\n
