Regulation: E-911 Update
(EI-05)

Wednesday - 09/12/07, 1:45-2:30pm

More than a year has passed since the FCC ordered VoIP Service Providers to provide E-911 to their customers. The FCC has now formed an enforcement team to review VSP’s status of compliance. This session will discuss where we have been and where we are going with VoIP 9-1-1 compliance and how to be compliant in 2007 and 2008. This session will focus on: • Regulatory letters from the FCC enforcement team: what they mean and how to be compliant. • Significant weaknesses in our 9-1-1 infrastructure that have caused roadblocks in compliance. • The Next Generation of 9-1-1; what’s coming next and how it will effect service providers. • Ongoing initiatives concerning the accurate routing of 911 calls to Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs) across the US and Canada.
