FCC Schedules NG911 Summit

The FCC has scheduled a summit on Next Generation 911 (NG911) for February 25th, bringing together public safety organizations, industry representatives and other interested persons to discuss the future technology. The 3-hour session is part of the FCC’s mandate to implement the New and Emerging Technologies 911 Improvement Act of 2008 (NET 911 Act) passed by Congress. NG911 is generally conceived as an IP-based, nationwide network, linking the nation’s public safety comm centers, and allowing a wide range of data to be freely exchanged, including audio, video, text and photos.
