Verizon Business today announced a new contract with the South Carolina Army National Guard, becoming the primary wireless communications provider of the state-based military components. The deal encompasses connectivity for more than 1,000 devices ranging from 5G Ultra Wideband and 4G LTE smartphones to data devices like jet packs. The communications capabilities provided by these devices will play a key factor in the SCARNG’s ability to achieve its mission across the state of South Carolina. The SCARNG will also have access to the Verizon Frontline Crisis Response Team, a specialized group composed primarily of former first responders and military personnel, dedicated to supporting public safety and government agencies during emergencies at no cost to the supported agencies.
