Ready Kit When it comes to crisis-ready reliability, think inside the box. Wouldn’t it be great to put crisis-ready reliability right where you need it—even before you need it? That’s what the Verizon Wireless Ready Kit does.
Wireless Internet Access helps ensure you are able to execute key functions by providing access to mission-critical data and applications behind the firewall with the coverage and speed you need when you need it most.
Wireless Email increases your ability to respond and makes communication easier, more efficient, and highly effective.
Verizon Wireless supports the
GPS/E911 requirement to help emergency response teams quickly and accurately determine the location of an incoming 911 emergency call in areas where the local public safety answering point has compatible systems.
