211 for VoIP and 511 for Wireless p-ANI
Assignment Practice
The state of CA, the state of ME, the state of NJ, and some
existing 911 system service providers in certain areas have
requested that the RNA continue to assign 211 for VoIP and 511
for wireless. Additionally, the state of Connecticut requests
that wireless carriers or their agents request only ESRKs and
ERSDs from the block(s) of p-ANIs already assigned to that
carrier.
Therefore, please include this information in the ‘p-ANI(s)
(NXX-XXXX) assignment preference’ field provided on the Part 1
form, whether the request for p-ANIs is for a VoIP or Wireless
service, and for CT include the range from which the assignment
should be made.
We are providing this information to conform to existing
assignment practices, however, we recognize that this is not
conducive to number conservation. Upon consultation with the
FCC, we have ascertained that this assignment practice will not
be able to be continued in an NPA in which either the 211 or 511
NXX is depleted.
