911 Enable Emergency Gateway Obtains Cisco Certification
Organizations using Cisco IP telephony can now ensure reliable E911 support for their entire workforce, including employees working from branch offices, at home and on the road.
Montreal, QC – October 22, 2008 - 911 Enable®, the leading provider of E911 solutions for IP-PBX systems, today announced that its award-winning Emergency Gateway appliance has earned Cisco certification. The Emergency Gateway was compliance-tested by Cisco for compatibility with Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) version 6.1.
The Emergency Gateway is an on-site appliance which helps organizations simplify E911 management while meeting their state and local E911 regulations. Its key features include automatic IP phone tracking, on-site security desk notification, and extensive auditing and reporting capabilities. The Emergency Gateway is also used to securely communicate with the 911 Enable Emergency Routing Service (ERS). With an infrastructure that is connected to over 4,800 Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs) nationwide, the ERS delivers emergency calls to the appropriate PSAP based on the caller’s geographic location. Together, the EGW and ERS represent the only solution of its kind, capable of supporting Cisco’s most advanced unified communications features.
“As businesses continue moving towards IP telephony, traditional E911 solutions are reaching the end of their lifecycles,” said Lev Deich, director of 911 Enable. “The Emergency Gateway replaces complex PBX management and carrier integration typically associated with traditional E911 solutions. With our successful Cisco certification, organizations with Cisco IP telephony deployments can now benefit from a E911 solution which reduces costs and administrative efforts.”
911 Enable will be showcasing the Emergency Gateway in November at the VoiceCon Conference in San Francisco, CA and the CIPTUG Expo in Orlando, FL, running concurrently Nov. 10-13.
911 Enable is a Cisco Technology Developer Affiliate. The Emergency Gateway is compatible with CUCM versions 4.x to 6.x, all Cisco IP phones, IP softphones, and analog/digital phones.
