(UPS) in the Backup E911 Center is not working correctly. Several problems

occur when the City Service Center loses electrical service. When this happens

all the computers controlling the telephone lines and radios in the Backup 911

Center shut down improperly and they must be rebooted manually. Additionally,

the most severe problem is when the power is lost, the 911 Geo Diverse System

also loses seven 911 telephone trunk lines that go to the Backup Center first

before coming to the main 911 Center at the Public Safety Building. As a

result, the 911 System is operating on only the other seven 911 telephone trunk

lines, which can cause 911 calls not to be received.



Motorola is the only known source for the equipment, as it will connect to the

E911 system provided and maintained by the vendor.
