Openwave® Location Manager - Emergency Services

Personal safety is a leading driver in the purchase of mobile phones. There is no better way for operators to fulfill this need than by identifying a subscriber's location in an emergency.

Openwave's Location Manager Emergency Services (LMES) is a high availability “emergency caller locate” solution leveraging over a decade of Openwave’s experience as a leading location-based services infrastructure provider.

Meet Mandates

FCC order 94-102 mandates that all U.S. wireless operators have the capability to deliver Phase II information and routing. The EU passed the Universal Service Directive, requiring member nations to adopt regulations requiring operators to have 112 in place. Companies not in compliance face stiff financial penalties.

LMES is uniquely suited to meet US E911, Europe's E-112, Phase 2 of Canada's E-911, and Japan's E-110 regulatory mandates.

The Openwave Location Manager – Emergency Services offers maximum flexibility to fit in any operator's network regardless of network type, switch architecture, platform and location technologies.
