Monterey’s first responders are getting a major boost in their wireless communications with the addition of a new, purpose-built cell site. The site – located in Monterey– is part of the FirstNet network expansion taking place in Massachusetts which is bringing increased coverage, capacity and capability to first responders across the state. Plus, the new FirstNet site will give Monterey’s first responders access to the fastest overall network experience

This is the first new FirstNet site to be publicly announced in Massachusetts following Governor Baker’s decision to advance its public safety broadband communications with FirstNet. The site is constructed using the dedicated Band 14 spectrum as well as other spectrum bands in the AT&T commercial spectrum portfolio
