9-1-1 equipment allows communication centers to receive emergency calls utilizing the 9-1-1 network. This includes Automatic Location Identifier (ALI), Automatic Number Identifier (ANI), _________________________.

• A. Recording equipment, landlines and voice over internet protocol.
• B. Mapping systems, telematic call centers and vehicles.
• C. Mapping systems, recording equipment, and computer aided dispatch.
• D. Mapping systems, recording equipment and cellular phones.

Answer: (C)

This item is testing what components accompany caller location and identification in the 9-1-1 system. Beyond ALI (location) and ANI (number), a complete 9-1-1 setup includes tools that help a dispatcher actually handle the call: mapping systems to show the caller’s position on a map, recording equipment to capture the conversation for quality assurance and legal records, and computer aided dispatch (CAD) to manage the response, track units, and coordinate resources. Together, these elements enable the dispatcher to locate the caller, verify details, and deploy the right responders efficiently. Choices that introduce transmission methods or other systems not directly part of the 9-1-1 equipment suite—such as landlines/VoIP, telematic centers, vehicles, or cellular phones—don’t fit the intended trio.
