Wireless Broadband for Public Safety

Video updates from Minnesota's Wireless Broadband/FirstNet Program Manager (February 2017)


  • Brandon Abley, former MN Program Manager, sent ECN this video to share about all the hard work and preparation they are doing in Ohio.
  • Illinois published a video on “What is FirstNet and what does it mean to Illinois Public Safety” 
  • Dell Business Systems posted a video on their Rugged Test Lab. It seems that the industry as well as government agencies are starting to understand what is needed in the field for Public Safety. With the new lab opening in Boulder CO, I thought it would be nice to see some testing in action.
  • There is no limit to videos on the internet about FirstNet, and FirstNet has several You Tube videos posted on their own channel, search for First Responder Network Authority if you would like to see the latest. Sheriff Stanek touted the benefits of FirstNet in one of their latest videos that ECN posted to its “What’s New” page. DPS-ECN What's New
  • For those of you who are trying to understand the actual network functionality I give you this video from Ericsson that describes the LTE technology. LTE Explained video
