FirstNet FirstNet is a government subsidized wireless network specifically designed for the needs of public safety users; access to FirstNet services will be limited to defined categories of users related to public safety. FirstNet was created under the Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012. Individual Responsible (IR) Plan Discount Individual Responsible Accounts ("IRU") are accounts for products and services between Contractors awarded a contract under this solicitation and individuals who are employees of eligible users of the Master Agreement. IRU accounts are for the personal use of individual employees of eligible end users of the Master Agreement. Corporate/Government Responsible (CRU) Plan CRU plans are plans that are purchased by end users of the Master Agreement that is awarded from this solicitation. Land Mobile Radio (LMR) Terrestrial -based, wireless communications systems, generally operating in the frequency range below 1 GHz, and commonly used by emergency responders to support voice and low - speed data communications. Mission Critical Push -to -Talk (MCPTT) A new standard for public safety PTT systems (starting with 3GPP Rel. 13) that also operates over the cellular carriers' wireless networks and supports, among other capabilities, the ability for wireless stations to discover and communicate directly with other system users without relaying those transmissions through a cellular base station. LTE (Long -Term Evolution) A 3GPP standard for high-speed cellular wireless communications. Mobile Messaging The ability to compose and exchange electronic messages that may include text, audio, video and other symbols between two or more users of mobile phones, tablets or other devices. Public Safety The functions of government, which ensure the protection of citizens, persons in their territory, organizations, and institutions against threats to their well-being. Push -to -Talk (PTT) A method of wireless voice communications using a momentary button to switch the wireless device from voice reception mode to transmit mode; in a cellular PTT system, all transmissions are relayed over the carrier's radio channels and through a server installed in the carrier's network infrastructure. Transmissions are received by all stations within range of that particular radio channel and are part of that broadcast group Quality of Service (QoS) Mechanisms employed in packet switching networks that allows them to prioritize certain classes of traffic over others thereby providing better performance for those preferred classes with regard to transit delay, jitter (variation in transit delay), and packet loss. Short Message Service (SMS)/Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) Wireless services offered by the cellular carriers allowing users to exchange short text (SMS) or audio/video files (MMS). These services are differentiated from other messaging services like Apple Messages and WhatsApp by the fact that they are offered by the cellular carriers and are typically charged as a separate item on the service plan along with voice and data. Subsidized Plan Cellular plans where the carrier will provide a phone, or tablet at a subsidized price. Wireless The transmitting of signals using radio waves instead of wires.
