FirstNet is Connecting More First Responders Across Oregon

First responders in more than 110 communities across Oregon are now using FirstNet, to stay mission ready. Since launching FirstNet, network coverage has grown by more than 50% in Oregon. And with Band 14 deployed nationwide, Oregon first responders in communities such as Portland, Salem, Medford, Hood River and Lincoln County are currently benefitting from the truly dedicated coverage and capacity it provides when they need it.

“FirstNet gives us the ability to put the end user, which is the people, first and so we’re able to get out there and get the job done and get it done efficiently and effectively with good solid communication.”
