AirLink Managed Network Service with FirstNet connectivity brings public safety agencies a robust, out-of-the-box solution for improved operational efficiencies and quick access to critical capabilities.
Sierra Wireless today announced the launch of its AirLink® Managed Network Service with embedded FirstNet® connectivity.
This bundled solution will help public safety agencies of all sizes take advantage of the benefits and capabilities enabled by FirstNet-connected solutions.
The AirLink Managed Network Service expands the breadth of Sierra Wireless’ solutions that are compatible with FirstNet, providing a complete, managed solution with FirstNet connectivity, proactive device management, 24/7/365 technical support and a purpose-built FirstNet Ready™ mobile router in a single package. This eliminates the complexity of maintaining a fleet of mobile devices and enables agencies to resolve device availability and issues up to 50 percent faster.
The service also delivers increased security in an end-to-end solution with Sierra Wireless’ secure private network architecture and by ensuring devices always have the latest security updates installed.
Sold as a subscription service, the AirLink Managed Network Service provides an easy and affordable way for public safety agencies on tight budgets to transform their operations with leading technologies, rolling FirstNet connectivity for critical communications, situational awareness capabilities and the ability to maintain their fleet of devices at peak performance into one low monthly fee.

“By embedding FirstNet connectivity into the AirLink Managed Network Service, public safety agencies can enjoy an end-to-end solution straight out of the box – accelerating their access to reliable, unthrottled connectivity and the advanced capabilities they need to help save lives.”
“This collaboration with Sierra Wireless not only gives public safety agencies more ways to gain access to the FirstNet communications platform, but it’s also a cost-effective way to equip agencies with the critical tools they need and trust to help them accomplish their mission.”
Tom Mueller, Vice President, Enterprise Solutions, Sierra Wireless, said:
