The Wireless Carrier will be required to order a minimum of two (2), Type 2C, CAMA or SS7/ISUP
signaling trunks, connecting to the appropriate BellSouth E911 Tandem switch. If SS7 connectivity
will be used, refer to Appendix A of this guide.
If using CAMA signaling, the Wireless Carrier must be able to deliver to the BellSouth E911 Tandem

Tandem switches. This signal is in the following format:
Stage 1: KP + 11 + ST
Stage 2: KP + Info Digit + 7 Digit ANI (p-ANI) + ST
These trunks are to be ordered through the BellSouth Wireless Account Team as an addendum to the
Wireless Carriers existing contract with BellSouth.
The Wireless Carrier is NOT required to order / purchase data link connections to the BellSouth ALI Host
computers when using this option. The connection to the ALI Host computers is handled by the provider of
the solution chosen by the Wireless Carrier. Wireless Carriers must work with Intrado to ensure the chosen
solution is compatible with the supported interfaces to the ALI Host computers. Wireless Carriers must
establish E2 connectivity between MPCs and the BellSouth ALI Host computers for Phase 2 as defined in
BellSouth Technical Reference TR73610, Issue 2.
