T-Mobile is Turning First Responder Smartphones into Body Cams with Latest Partnership - Seite 2

Today’s news comes on the heels of T-Mobile’s latest upgrades to Connecting Heroes in June where the Un-carrier added preemption along with priority network access, so first responders with WPS (Wireless Priority Service) get unmatched access to our network in an emergency. Plus, T-Mobile unveiled new Connecting Heroes plans with 5G smartphones and rugged devices to choose from.

T-Mobile is America’s 5G leader with the largest, fastest, and most reliable 5G network. The Un-carrier’s Extended Range 5G covers 305 million people across 1.7 million square miles — 4x the geographic coverage of Verizon and nearly 2x AT&T. And with Sprint now part of T-Mobile, the Un-carrier is widening its lead, lighting up Ultra Capacity 5G across the country and bringing super-fast 5G speeds to more places than anyone else. Ultra Capacity 5G covers 165 million people with plans to reach 200 million by the end of the year.

Connecting Heroes is part of T-Mobile’s 10-year commitment to provide free service and 5G access to first responder agencies — all public and non-profit state and local fire, police and EMS departments, and emergency call centers including 911 and public safety answering points (PSAPs) — potentially saving them up to $7 billion through the Un-carrier’s Connecting Heroes program. Since the launch over a year ago, first responder agencies and departments around the country have enjoyed the benefits of free 5G smartphone service with unlimited data. T-Mobile also offers the best discount in wireless for individual first responders and their families — Magenta First Responder — with 50% off family lines compared to Magenta.
