We can help you make a safer world.

Our single-minded goal is to deliver reliable, effective communications capabilities to communities so that responders and civilians alike can rely on wireless communications every day and when it matters most during an emergency.

Uniquely positioned to help

We understand that wireless communication is essential for both the community at large and first responders. Every action we take integrates the needs of the community and responders with our ability to deliver rapid and well-placed wireless infrastructure.

Benefiting the community on many levels

We can leverage Public Safety Towers' assets to benefit both the community and first responders during emergency events and also generate revenue for the public safety agency with their existing towers.

Streamlining timelines and approvals

Because we work so closely with public safety, we can more effectively locate and secure traditionally challenging tower sites. We cooperate with public safety to enhance safety and improve universal access to cellular services in the community.

MAKE THE WORLD SAFER.

PSTC believes that additional site locations for telecommunication can be secured by augmenting public safety capabilities.

PSTC has access to locations that are not utilized today and believe that the acquisition of these sites could be made in timeframes and with financial terms that are more favorable than today’s normal commercial cell tower approval processes.

In the PSTC Model, Public Safety is bought into the process. We provide local direction based on the community’s coverage needs as well as assist in site acquisition and approvals. Communities get the broadband network they want and receive a revenue share from LMR Towers.

PSTC has developed a three-tiered strategy to close the coverage gap and improve public safety broadband coverage.
