E911 Services for VoIP Providers offered by DASH911.com

June 06, 2005 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
6 June 2005 Miami, FL - Dash911, an innovative technology software engineering company, will begin offering E911 capability to VoIP providers nationwide in the USA.

The new FCC ruling requires that all Internet broadband telephone providers (VoIP providers) must offer E911 service to their subscribers by October 2005. However, providing these services can be expensive in terms of implementation effort, hardware, software, dedicated lines and increased overhead expenses.

Dash911 offers VoIP providers a low-cost method of immediately offering E911 services to broadband telephony subscribers through pre-engineered server plug-ins, and private label subscriber-facing web pages branded with the VoIP provider’s name and logo.

The Dash911 system of VoIP E911 services offers nationwide USA coverage and is fully-compliant with the FCC ruling and will provide a more advanced solution that the commonly-referred to “ten digit redirect”.

The Dash911 system is engineered to be triple-redundant with high-availability, carrier class, failover and fault-tolerant servers in multiple geographic locations. For extreme emergency situations due to any unlikely system problems there is a live person and manually-handled call routing backup feature to ensure 100% E911 call completion. To complete the offering, Dash911- enabled VoIP providers will also be covered by a $1,000,000 insurance policy in relation to E911 emergency calls.

In an effort to help startup and smaller VoIP providers be competitive, the Dash911 VoIP E911 system is pre-engineered to work with all Asterisk-based VoIP provider systems without any modifications. A SOAP interface API is available for developers for custom applications.

Prices for implementing Dash911’s VoIP E911 service start at a one-time $1,245 startup fee plus $0.68 to $1.08 per DID per month. Complete details and signup information available at www.Dash911.com .
