Verizon Frontline supports public safety agencies during national political convention
2024年9月13日 - 1:00AM
The Verizon Frontline Crisis Response Team recently completed a
deployment in support of federal, state and local public safety
agencies during the Democratic National Convention.
The Verizon Frontline Crisis Response Team’s
preparations for this high-profile event started more than 18
months ago and required close collaboration with dozens of federal,
state and county agencies to help ensure first responders had the
mission-critical communications capabilities they needed as they
worked to maintain the safety of Chicago’s residents, attendees and
visitors.
During the deployment, the Verizon Frontline Crisis
Response Team provided agencies with Verizon Frontline solutions
ranging from smartphones loaded with public safety-specific
applications to deployable communications assets like Satellite
Picocells on Trailers (SPOTs).
The team also provided unmanned aerial system (UAS)
support to public safety agencies during the convention, helping
provide broader situational awareness at multiple locations, as
well as boosting network coverage for specialized missions.
Additionally, the team assisted in network monitoring to ensure
total coverage for public safety agencies and deployed extra
routers to command centers and high-traffic locations to help first
responders maintain constant contact.
The Verizon Frontline Crisis Response Team also
supported public safety agencies during the Republican National
Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. During the two conventions, the
team provided first responders with more than 900 Verizon Frontline
solutions.
“The support of the Verizon Frontline Crisis
Response Team in both Chicago and Milwaukee was a key aspect of
helping ensure all involved agencies were able to successfully
achieve their missions through collaboration and communication,”
said Derek Mayer, Deputy Special Agent in Charge of the U.S. Secret
Service’s Chicago Field Office, the office for the entire states of
Illinois, Wisconsin, the Quad Cities portion of Iowa and the
northern part of Indiana.
The Verizon Frontline Crisis Response Team provides
on-demand, emergency assistance during crisis situations to
government agencies and emergency responders on a 24/7 basis at no
cost to the supported agencies. Verizon Frontline Crisis Response
Team members set up portable cell sites, Wi-Fi hotspots, charging
stations and other Verizon Frontline devices and solutions that
enable communications and/or boost network performance.
