RadioResource Media Group released a new e-book that offers details on the status of the First Responder Network Authority (FirstNet) and how the public-safety broadband network will interwork with Project 25 (P25) and other LMR networks.

“The State of FirstNet: What Public-Safety Officials Need to Know About FirstNet and How It Interworks with P25 Systems” answers important questions about FirstNet coverage, devices and applications, along with the future of hybrid networks.

The e-book is divided into three sections. The first section tracks FirstNet’s integration with emergency communications centers (ECCs) and satellite services. The second section covers certified devices and applications, plus data and voice interoperability. The third section delves into what a hybrid public-safety communications network will look like with an update on interworking standards and a view to the future of critical communications.

“FirstNet is making headway and changing many aspects of the mission-critical communications industry,” said Editor Sandra Wendelken. “With change comes many questions, and we’ve put together a comprehensive resource with many answers. In our dynamic and exciting industry, this e-book offers a thorough look at where things stand and where the industry is headed.”
