NENA announced the start of the 20 day public review period for NENA’s Interim Solution standard (short name I2) on August 22, 2005. This is NENA’s first major standard on VoIP and E9-1-1 system interface, and is an interim solution for VoIP telecommunications service providers to provide full Enhanced 9-1-1 service through current E9-1-1 infrastructure. The draft standard is available for review and comments through the NENA web site.
This design and standard is a migratory step toward the currently in-progress design of an IP-based Next Generation 9-1-1 service that will flexibly support all types of 9-1-1 calling devices.
The review period will end at 5:00PM on September 19th 2005.
