Verizon Frontline Upgrades FDNY Communications with One Talk

Verizon Frontline has successfully migrated over 2,500 Centrex telephone lines to its One Talk wireless desktop devices for the New York City Fire Department (FDNY). This upgrade replaces an outdated central exchange system with a modern, robust, and secure solution.

Verizon Frontline provided this advanced connectivity solution to meet the specific needs of the FDNY. The new system prioritises and preempts first responders' voice and data communications during high call volumes. This ensures reliable communication among all FDNY personnel, from office workers to fire marshals in the field.

The upgrade involved delivering Verizon One Talk T67 LTE devices as the new Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) solution. The FDNY has been operationally assessing the new system and has found it reliable in various locations.

Verizon Frontline's successful migration of the FDNY's communication system to One Talk wireless desktop devices has improved the department's operational efficiency and reliability. With over 40,000 agencies currently using Verizon Frontline for mission-critical solutions, the company continues to demonstrate its commitment to public safety.
