This document summarizes Parallel Wireless' work in deploying public safety LTE networks. In 3 sentences: Parallel Wireless has been reinventing public safety LTE for 4 years through global trials and deployments. They can virtualize cellular network complexity to cut costs by 80% and enable new topologies like deploying a network from a fire truck. Recent demonstrations include a network for the FBI at Super Bowl 50 that took only 20 minutes to install and a hybrid LMR/LTE network for rural first responders in New Hampshire.

2. Parallel Wireless

• Four years reinventing Public Safety LTE
• Multiple global public safety and military
trials/deployments
• Virtualize away the complexity of high-end
commercial grade cellular.
• Cut 80% of cost: keep FirstNet on budget
• Enables new public safety topologies
• Echoes PC revolution underestimate:
“Why would first responders need more than
40,000 base station radios?”
How about one in every fire truck?

3. Implications for Public Safety
3
• Parallel enables FirstNet to stay on budget
• City of Nashua (NH) P25 LMR upgrade > $8M.
Drains budget! No data services!
• Build out FirstNet in Nashua for < $1M
• Why data? Images, maps. Stadium drowns voice
• Old choice: Local control or regional
redundancy? Now…have both!
• LMR integration allows transition to LTE one
radio, one agency at a time.

5. 5
High-end commercial LTE wireless.
Simplified.
Approaching the cost and ease of Wi-Fi
• 20 minutes for FBI network techs to install
Parallel’s LTE network at Super Bowl City
• Tough LTE smart handsets ($650) vs voice
only LMR ($3,500)
• Commodity computing changed public safety
& military. Wireless networks are next.
First, commodity computing,
next communications.

6. FBI: Can Parallel build Super Bowl City network?
6
• NFL proposed radios in north and south
scoreboards - then shifted to SuperBowl City
• 20 days to deploy, 14 days to license, three days
to ship, 20 minutes to install
• Backhaul to Houston EPC (with local backup too)
• Need power and Internet…or just vehicle power
• SB50 carriers required a year of planning
• Software from Parallel Wireless (not field staff)
tunes power, sector
• Interoperable between agencies

7. Milford Area Communications Center (MACC) Base
Providing Band 14 LTE for public safety in rural NH
7
Shortlisted for LTE North America Awards
for Most Innovative LTE service.
Key Objectives:
• Build hybrid carrier and dedicated Band 14 LTE
network to cover the MACC base area (four
rural towns in NH)
• Coverage anywhere with outdoor and in-vehicle
nodes intelligently orchestrated
• Converge LMR voice and data networks
• Demonstrate secure access to FBI CJIS data,
data communications, continuous video link
between dispatch center and mobile law
enforcement.

8. MACC BASE
• MACC (Milford Area Communications Center) Base Public Safety LTE field trial in NH, US
demonstrated easy to install and maintain resilient public safety HetNet in rural US.
• MACC base personnel benefited from resilient voice and data in-building and remote coverage
enabled by intelligently orchestrated fixed & in-vehicle small cells with LMR/PMR interoperability
