
Mission Critical
 Communications that are required to maintain safety of first
responders and the people with whom they interact

Mission Support
 Communications that provide improved operational
efficiency, enhance safety, and augment command
and control, but are not essential
Initial high bandwidth data applications such as
streaming video will be for mission support use

Public safety grade design includes:
 Extended life battery systems
 Back up power systems
 Diverse routing of cell site links (overhead,
underground, thru air)
 Diverse cell site link technology (fiber, coax,
microwave, telco, optical, satellite)
The majority of cell site outages are due to
loss of power and data links
Physical
 Diverse routing of cells
 Mirrored databases
 Geographically distributed processing
 Operational
 Mobile hotspots
 Bring your own cell (BYOC)
 Cells on Wheels (COWs, COLTs, GOATs, SOWs)
Recovering quickly after a network incident is
imperative

 Situational awareness
 Save time when seconds count
 Save money
 Save lives, solve crimes, and keep
our communities and first
responders safer
 Meeting # 2
▪ Identify Regional Team Representatives by:
▪ Name
▪ Discipline (Fire, EMS, Law Enforcement)
▪ RPC Districts
▪ Finalize needs assessment process
▪ Review the Mobile Data Survey tool
▪ Do we need focus groups or smaller meetings by
discipline
▪ Assign sector tasks to team representatives

What do I want this network to do for me?
 Between now and the next meeting please discuss
with your peers what a PSBN can do for you.
 There will be things come up that we haven’t
thought of or considered
 We want to be sure all of the possibilities are
considered
