911 Enable Introduces E911 Solution for Microsoft Communications Server '14'

MONTREAL, March 22 /PRNewswire/ -- 911 Enable, a division of Connexon Telecom Inc., today announced one of the industry's first E911 solutions for Microsoft Communications Server "14". Working together with Microsoft Corp., 911 Enable adapted its award-winning Emergency Routing Service (ERS) to deliver Next Generation E911 capabilities for Communications Server "14" deployments.

The ERS is an E911 SIP trunking service that provides connectivity to Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs) across the United States. When 911 is dialed, the ERS routes the emergency call and the caller's accurate location information to the appropriate PSAP, based on the caller's discovered location.

A 911 caller's discovered location is directly extracted by the ERS from the SIP signaling originating from Microsoft's location-aware end points. This Next Generation capability eliminates the need for organizations to provision emergency response locations in an ALI database.  The ERS also helps organizations meet their state E911 regulations, ensures on-site security are notified of all emergency situations, and supports off-campus users in a manner that is both elegant and simple to manage.

"The release of the Next Generation ERS is a milestone for the public safety industry, and represents a significant advancement in E911 call handling technology," said Lev Deich, Director of 911 Enable. "The ERS for Communications Server "14" builds on our existing E911 capabilities, ensuring organizations who take advantage of Microsoft's advanced unified communications features also receive unparalleled E911 support."

Communications Server "14," a platform for presence, instant messaging, conferencing, and enterprise voice, is the highly anticipated follow-up to Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 R2.

"We are pleased that 911 Enable integrated their emergency call routing solution with Microsoft Communications Server "14". 911 Enable's solution is easy to deploy and supports users inside and outside the enterprise, enhancing employee safety," said Yancey Smith, director of Communications Server Product Management at Microsoft.

911 Enable will showcase the ERS for Communications Server "14" at the VoiceCon 2010 conference, March 22-25 in Orlando, FL. Additionally, it will be one of the solutions featured in Microsoft's submission for the popular VoiceCon mock RFP contest.
