Evolving technology has enabled a new breed of voice service providers to begin offering Voice-over-Broadband (VOBB) services. The commonplace E-911 service that had been available for years in the legacy voice network turned out to be not-so-simple to deploy in the VOBB environment. Initial VOBB services did not include E-911, and this led to several highly publicized events in which emergency services were delayed, sometimes leading to fatal consequences. This motivated the FCC to order that all VOBB service providers enable E-911 service for their customers by November 005 or face sanctions. Faced with this deadline, the telecom industry responded with new solutions to enable E- for VOBB subscribers.
