MetaSwitch & Dash911 partner to simplify VoIP E911
MetaSwitch is working together with Dash911 to simplify how VoIP providers handle 9-1-1 emergency calling. Already, Public Interest Network Services, Inc. (PINS), a communications provider based in New York City's "Silicon Alley", is using the' simplified' version of E 911 service.
The 'simplified' system combines MetaSwitch's Class 5 softswitch with Dash911's hosted service platform. Thus, VoIP service providers can route 911 calls to the relevant Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) that is determined by learning about the subscriber's current location. The new E911 solution from MetaSwitch and Dash911 also features regular VoIP calling features such as custom call treatments and web-based configuration.
