[cisco-voip] Cheap Router for 911

[Eric Pedersen]

We use the 881V in a couple of locations and it is quite good. It has 4 FXS ports for fax lines too.

There are also options like the 881V that can handle PSTN (and SRST connections) that may be a good fit. Otherwise like others mentioned there are E-911 and assorted other options.

Whether or not you can do this may depend on the terms of service with the provider. I know with PS-ALI service from Telus, simply forwarding the DIDs to “someone” is not sufficient. Their tariff document for PS-ALI service specifically states that the DID must ring to the station that placed the 911 call.

ok, from what I understand, you don't have to _physically_ send the 911 call over that line for things to work. you just need and address attached to the number you're marking the calls with. here's how we do it.

  *   signed a waiver with our PSTN provider so they lift the filter and allow us to mark outbound calls with ANY number
  *   signed up for a PS-ALI service with another provider so we can enter any address for any DID
  *   DIDs are configured to ring through to our campus security

you can probably do the same with a 1FL installed at each building, and then forward the calls to a DID that is answered by someone.



not perfect, but it might buy you some time.



not the answer you're looking for, but a different perspective.

Have a site with a 8 port 3560 router.  Wired via fiber to another building with UCM 8.0.
What's a cheap little router I can add to this site for 911?  Not worried about SRST, but proper address reporting for 911 would be nice!

My VAR is recommending the 2901 which looks like total overkill.
