[biz] Re: [on-asterisk] E911 service provider
Thanks everybody for your prompt reply. I would talk to Digital Conception as looks like they are doing exactly same what i was thinking in the terms of sharing. They charge $99 for setup in compare to $1500 from 911enabled, however their monthly cost $2 in compare to $0.75. Philip, I would appreciate if you could share list of some affordable provider. Thanks again for prompt reply.

Philip, Using a PRI for all 911 calls is an interesting idea to me. Since PRI allows for Caller ID change and because you say that psap holds the the customer address then calling 911 through PRI with customers Caller ID should work. Interesting!!! Is that what some providers do? Any legal ramifications to this? Doesn't this infringe telco's terms of use? Can you elaborate on how to go about getting psap updated at better cost than what Saurin already mentioned? Because if it costs the same or more, might as well go with those service providers.

Interesting again. CRTC doesn't require location info as long as you have a Caller ID being passed?! Does this mean, no updates to psap are required by law?

Its all about caller-id and ensuring the psap's have the customer did-address association setup correctly. Just to be clear, if the device is a nomadic VOIP device, then sending calls direct to the PSAP is a violation of PSAP and CRTC regulations. The call _MUST_ first go to a operator who will verbally determine the callers location before routing the call to the correct PSAP. Location determination based on CallerID is not a CRTC requirement but all 3rd party 911 providers that I'm aware of use it as a backup.
