Vixxi Selects Level 3

Level 3 Communications' Wholesale Markets group has extended its relationship with Vixxi Solutions, a nationwide Internet-enabled E-911 solutions provider, to support that company's network connectivity to E-911 private and dedicated infrastructures. Supporting Vixxi's deployment of FCC-compliant nomadic 911 services to VoIP service providers, Level 3 now serves as a primary provider of E-911 network connectivity for Vixxi. Under the terms of the agreement, Vixxi will use Level 3's geographic presence to route 911 calls to the Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) over the nationwide 911 infrastructure. Vixxi's database capability will identify the customer's location and then send the call to Level 3 with routing instructions to terminate the call to the geographically relevant PSAP.
