Executive Director North Carolina 911 Board, North Carolina
When disaster strikes and fiber infrastructure fails, when connectivity from primary carriers isn’t available, what keeps 911 services operational? North Carolina’s Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs) have faced these challenges head-on. In this session, the North Carolina 911 Board will share their experience on how FirstNet Wireless Redundant Solutions ensured uninterrupted service during three critical scenarios: restoring operations after a last-mile carrier outage, supporting a PSAP transition to a new facility without primary connectivity, and implementing a redundant deployment for added resilience. Learn practical strategies for deploying wireless redundancy to maintain continuity and ensure public safety communications are never compromised.
Learning Objectives:
Understand the challenges and risks PSAPs face when fiber infrastructure or primary carrier connectivity is disrupted.
Explore how FirstNet Wireless Redundant Solutions can ensure uninterrupted 911 operations during outages and transitions.
Learn step-by-step strategies for deploying wireless redundancy in scenarios such as facility moves or infrastructure failures.
