Passionategeekz June 25th news, telecom service providers are actively exploring new ways to provide technical support in emergencies. For example, T-Mobile will launch satellite SMS services, which will be expanded to 911 SMS functionality for all users in the future (no operators allowed).
In addition, AT&T issued an announcement yesterday, announcing that it will upgrade the new generation of 9-1-1 emergency communication platform (ESInet) in October. Users can transmit pictures/videos to public safety response points (PSAPs) in emergencies (operation difficulty is equivalent to ordinary text messages), helping rescuers better grasp the on-site situation and formulate fast and effective solutions. As far as Passionategeekz knows, this is also the first telecom operator in the United States to provide this service.
ESInet also supports automatic vehicle accident alarms and cloud security access:
-
The 2026 Toyota specific models automatically send collision data (including airbag status/precision position) through the built-in SIM card. This is also the industry’s first fully integrated wireless transmission solution based on standards (developed in collaboration with Intrado).
-
PSAPs securely obtain cloud public security data through dedicated private Internet connections and avoid network security threats to public networks.
AT&T said: Since launching ESInet in 2018, 1,700 emergency call centers have been upgraded to NG9-1-1 technology, providing security for more than 75 million people.
AT&T has long been a reliable leader in NG9-1-1 transformation. The NG9-1-1 Transformation is the result of a joint effort by public safety departments, communications service providers, and state and local governments to upgrade traditional analog connections from Public Safety Response Points (PSAP) to fiber-based IP networks.
AT&T is the only operator that provides an end-to-end emergency communication solution, covering the entire process from calling 911 to leaving the site by the last emergency worker. As an exclusive wireless network built for public safety, FirstNet not only supports first responder communications, but also serves as a wireless backup link for PSAPs—may maintain network connections when the main line of the 911 call center is interrupted for any reason.
