FCC ENhANCED 911 (E911) RULES BACkGROUND
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) requires wireless carriers
to transmit specific latitude and longitude location (Automatic Location
Identification = ALI) information as well as "911" calls to Public Safety Answering
Points (PSAPs) to identify the location of the caller in case of emergency.
Generally, the rules require that carriers identify an E911 caller' s location within 50
meters of the actual location for 67 percent of calls and within 150 meters of the
actual location for 95 percent of calls.
CASIO G'ZONE C781R3 — ALI CAPABILITY
The C781R3 is an ALI-capable phone equipped with a GPS (Global Positioning
System) receiver supporting a satellite-based GPS ALI-capable network to comply
with the FCC' s ALI requirements.
The network compliance with the above FCC requirements is dependent on:
(a) the use of digital technology by the wireless network; (b) GPS satellite
signals being able to reach the handset (such transmissions do not always work
indoors, for example); and (c) handset signals reaching wireless "base stations"
(atmospheric and environmental conditions may cause variations in handset
receiving signal strength).
Also the transmission of the ALI information is subject, in part, to system
constraints within the wireless network to which the E911 signal is transmitted
and over which Hitachi HTA has no control. Finally, customers are advised that the
C781R3' s ALI capability is to be used for E911 purposes only.
