[cisco-voip] extra analog lines for 911 where a PRI exists - makes sense?

[Jonathan Charles]

Yes and no.

Here's the problem.

Let's say a user calls 911, and the operator transfers them to a poison
control unit or a CPR expert and it is just a local number... there is a
possibility that the MLPP would not recognize this as an emergency call and
bump it.

However, this may be an urban legend...
