In Illinois, it's both, with a strong preference to SIP.

INDigital's system they built with Penninsula FiberNet in Michigan is SIP, with 
private ethernet connectivity to PFN's switches (not public IP networks). Not 
sure about other states.

Is the interconnection TDM or IP? I did not see much on their site. I did see 
they provide services in a few States.

You'll It'll likely vary state-by-state. 


Here in Illinois, we're migrating from a traditional model to an NG911 platform 
by INDigital. You can only interconnect with INDigital at a few locations, none 
of them in-LATA.

I have been out of the game for about 20 years and now I am back. I have a lot 
to catch up on but I'm hoping this listserv can help me out. I have a few 
questions 


* Is it possible to interconnect directly with a PSAP? 
* Is a CLEC license/agreement still required? 
* Is this interconnection still only offered via TDM or is IP/SIP an 
option? 



Thanks for your help.

Re: [VoiceOps] interconnect directly with a PSAP?

2021-07-06 Thread Rob Verk
Thanks, My preference would be not to use intrado or intelliquent because at 
the end of the day we are going to build our own E911 product.

I pulled up a list of the different PSAPs in Michigan and I see the contact 
details of the administrator of PSAP but not necessarily the LEC or carrier 
providing 911.  Is the information aggregated anywhere?

Perhaps it's my old view of thinking but I've never known a LEC to do anything 
unless they were obligated to do so by regulation and even when they are a lot 
of times it's an uphill battle.  From the brief bit of research, I have done it 
looks like an interconnected voice over IP provider needs to offer 911/E911 
services.  What was not clear to me is if that entitles them to enter into 
interconnection agreements or if the 911 services need to come from there host 
provider.

My end role as we build out this product is direct interconnection to the PSAPs 
and the ability to update the E911 database directly.

The answer to all 3 is, it depends. Generally there are non clec ways to attach 
to 911 directly (the exact process will have to be worked out by talking to the 
carrier providing 911 in that area) (or indirectly through the likes of intrado 
or intelliquent) and at least in Michigan, the carrier who won 911 contracts 
throughout Michigan actually is native IP on the network, and TDM connectivity 
is an upcharge.
