e911 a problem for many VOIP providers

Source: snapvoip.blogspot.com

Many VOIP providers will not be able to provide "enhanced" 911 service to all their customers by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)’s November 28 deadline, VOIP industry sources say (see FCC Requires VOIP E911).

The FCC order requires VOIP providers provide ”enhanced” 911 service, which delivers a caller’s name, telephone number, and physical address directly to the console of the local Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) in an emergency.

Industry insiders say most VOIP providers are working toward the goal, but realizing it in the entirety of their territory, for most, is an unrealistic goal.

Will 911 requirements harm small VOIP Providers?

Source: snapvoip.blogspot.com

It seems that the cost of enabling 911 services will be the fall of the small guys. It is rather expensive right now to provide 911 services. My thoughts on that is; It is time to regroup. Individually one might not be able to afford the 911 services. But what if all or some of them band together? consortium could be able to pay the price via a membership fee. Also avenues like pushing the equipment vendor or the termination servie provider to furnish the requirements might keep the small guy above the water
