VIDEO: FirstNet priority calls over AT&T LTE

The 2017 International Balloon Festival in Albuquerque, New Mexico, was an opportunity for first responders to experience firsthand the priority handling of calls using AT&T’s LTE broadband network.

Instead of slow or lost signals that often occur during large events, law enforcement and public safety officials covering the festival got enhanced coverage, connectivity and capacity over the network.

Watch the FirstNet video.
