BellSouth 911 Offer
Telecom Web reports that Bellsouth has made an open offer to all VoIP providers to connect to it’s 911 routers. BellSouth said, in a statement attributed to CTO Bill Smith, that the company has “committed to the expeditious development and offer for sale of a E911 product for VoIP providers” in response to a Vonage request for such action.
This is a start. However, BellSouth’s solution still puts the burden on the VoIP provider to furnish the actual location of the customer premises equipment.
