LAS VEGAS, NV, February 27, 2007 — Dash911 announces today at the COMPTEL PLUS Spring 2007 Convention & Expo, that they have integrated their hosted service platform with NetSapiens’ SNAPsolution™ to simplify the implementation of 9-1-1 emergency calling services for VoIP providers. The joint solution has already been deployed by several service providers including San Diego-based Vinculum Communications (www.vincomm.net). This solution is important because the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) has mandated that VoIP providers need to provide full 911 services to all interconnected customers.

The new business and technology solution combines NetSapiens’ market-leading IP Multimedia Platform with Dash911’ s hosted service platform, to enable VoIP service providers to route 911 calls to the appropriate Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) based on the subscriber’ s current location. A full range of VoIP calling features, including custom call treatments and web-based configuration, are available to subscribers from the NetSapiens platform. When subscribers move their VoIP device from one location to another, the Dash911 web portal —integrated with NetSapiens’ own Self-Care solution — offers a “ready to go” Web-based mechanism for them to easily update their location information.

“Support for emergency calling is now a requirement for all VoIP providers offering services in North America, based on rulings by the regulators in both the United States and Canada,” said Jon Arnold, VoIP blogger and principal of the telecommunications analyst firm Jon Arnold and Associates. “NetSapiens is an established leader in softswitching, so this product integration is an important contribution to the VoIP industry’ s adoption of ubiquitous 9-1-1 service.”

“We’ re pleased to work with NetSapiens to help deliver this important component of public safety”, said Dash911’ s Gregory Giagnocavo. “NetSapiens’ state-of-the-art technology was great to work with as we completed interoperability testing. The FCC and savvy customers are demanding access to 9-1-1, and VoIP providers using NetSapiens’ softswitch can clearly differentiate their product offerings by providing 9-1-1 emergency calling services.”

“NetSapiens values public safety, and we believe that integrating 9-1-1 emergency services into our SNAPsolution™ is a great benefit for our customers, and for their subscribers,” said Anand Buch, Co-Founder & CEO, NetSapiens. “We are pleased to offer this integrated solution with Dash911 to our customers as a reliable and easily deployed option for 9-1-1 services.”
