Summary

911 emergency support requires planning, especially during telephony migration to the cloud. Historically, IT departments maintained TDM, PRI, or POTs circuits into public safety answering points (PSAPs). However, moving communications to the cloud can break this connection. To maintain it and stay compliant with state and federal regulations, organizations need a reliable E911 solution provider like Bandwidth that connects directly to all 911 tandems or selective routers in the U.S. and Canada. Additionally, enterprises must adhere to Kari's Law and Section 506 of RAY BAUM'S Act for federal regulations and state laws regarding multi-line telephone systems (MLTS) E911 compliance.
