A call system comprising an interface system configured to receive a call request, and a processing system coupled to the interface system and configured operate in a current mode of a plurality of modes, to determine if the call is for an emergency service while in the current mode, if the call is for the emergency service determine a preferred mode for the call from a one of the plurality of modes, and initiate the call in the preferred mode.

Dynamic access mode determination for emergency service calls

A user interface is provided for an apparatus located at a customer premises location that manages routing of network services to communication endpoints at the customer premises location. The apparatus aggregates network traffic for the customer premises location and routes the network traffic to any of a variety of different communication endpoints at the customer premises location. Routing of network traffic may be based on user-configurable customer management rules. The user interface facilitates access to and interaction with network services and control of the customer management rules.

User interface for customer premises communications gateway

A communication network for emergency service call handling, the communication network comprising a mobile switching center (MSC) configured to receive an emergency call from a wireless end device and transmit first call signaling indicating a call key for the emergency call and a public safety answering point (PSAP) for the call, and a gateway system configured to receive the first call signaling, process the first call signaling to generate second call signaling indicating the call key and the PSAP, transmit the second call signaling to a routing system, and connect the emergency call from the MSC to the routing system.

Converged emergency service call handling

A communication system comprising an access system configured to provide a plurality of end devices with access to a packet communication network, a first end device of the plurality of end devices configured to transmit a first query to the access system, receive a first response indicating a first identifier for the access system, transmit a registration message indicating the first identifier and a second identifier for the first end device, and transmit a first call request for a call wherein the first call request indicates the second identifier, and a call processing system in communication with the first end device and configured to receive the registration message, store the first identifier in association with the second identifier, receive the first call request, process the second identifier to determine the first identifier stored in association with the second identifier, and transmit a second call request indicating the first identifier.

Location determination capabilities for emergency call services

An emergency information system comprises an interface and a processing system. The interface is configured to receive first call signaling for an emergency call from a call processing system wherein the first call signaling indicates a call back number. The processing system is configured to process the first call signaling to determine a destination for the emergency call, generate second call signaling indicating a key and the destination, and generate a database message indicating the key and the call back number. The interface is further configured to transfer the second call signaling to the call processing system and transfer the database message to a database system.
