FirstNet is Connecting More First Responders Across Iowa

FirstNet rolled out Band 14 across Iowa to provide public safety with truly dedicated coverage and capacity when they need it by increasing our network by nearly 25%. Areas benefitting from Band 14 cover the entire state.

Mike Ralston - President, Iowa Association of Business and Industry:
“We couldn’t be more pleased to support the public safety mission in Iowa by bringing our first responders – and residents – greater access to the connectivity they need. “When Iowa opted-in to FirstNet five years ago, we knew it would bring not only enhanced communications capabilities for our fire, police and emergency teams but would also stimulate investment in high-speed wireless connectivity and expand our broadband infrastructure to all corners of the state.”
