  8. Why E911? Real-Life Stories • Man Found Dead After Phone Glitch Confuses 911 UPDATED - Monday April 24, 2006 6:07am     • eVideo: 911 Error Blamed on Computer GlitchGaithersburg (AP) - An immigrant from Bangladesh was found dead at his Gaithersburg office this week, hours after he called 911 saying he needed medical help. The Washington Post reports ‘X’ phoned for help 40 minutes after he started work at a medical company in Gaithersburg on Tuesday - but almost 10 hours passed before somebody found him lying on the floor of his office. Police said an apparent phone glitch sent medical personnel to the wrong address - and, finding nothing amiss, they believed the call was unfounded.

  17. How did the location information for phone number (312)555-1111 get into the Public Safety Answering Point’s Server? AND Who is responsible for getting it there? Well, it’s quite the Challenge to an organization as you’ll see….

  18. E911: The Key Requirements • Implement ISDN PRI or CAMA • Passes ANI or unique telephone number of 911 caller • Ensures proper call routing through the PSTN • 911 center must be able to call back the 911 caller • Identifies appropriate ALI association • Establish and Maintain ALI at regional databases • Define location information for every phone • Send data to regional E911 databases in NENA format • Establish process for ongoing ALI updates • Monitor acceptance and verification to ensure accuracy • Track and store historical and transaction detail • Record of risk management and compliance • Evidence in the event of litigation • Engage the time and resources to complete the task

  30. New business issues present opportunity for you… Issue #1: The existing 911 network does not support mobility, work at home or remote offices without local 911 trunks Issue #2: Local trunks are not always cost effective or even an option depending on the type of user The solution: RedSky’s integration with Avaya and partnership with Intrado & TCS offers a solution for home office, remote office and nomadic IP phone users without local trunks: E911 Manager with Location Information Services (LIS)

  31. Location Tracking – Remote office, home office and nomadic workers are tracked when they register • E911 Manager captures phone registrations and updates the call server and VoIP Positioning Center with new location information E911 Manager Location Information Services (LIS)

  32. Remote users are prompted to designate new location upon login to their Avaya softphone User must select from one of four options Pre-defined locations are easily recalled and selected by the user New locations are validated through RedSky Location Information Services User can “opt-out” of 911 service by agreeing to a legal waiver

  34. E911 Globally – Factors to Understand • E911 is not a Global Standard. • Each country has its own Unique Challenges. • RedSky does have a Solution today, a way of addressing a Global issue.

  35. E911 Globally – RedSky’s Solution • EON is a corporate wide emergency response system that can alert Prospect’s own Security personnel worldwide to 911 calls. • There are no geographic limitations to deploying EON. • Roadmap ahead: Canada, UK & Australia have similar E911 Infrastructures to the US. • CAVEAT: Japan & Netherlands have different Systems in place to handle 911; still, RedSky’s EON with SMS can handle these Markets.
