LONGMONT, Colo., March 31, 2011 — Intrado Inc., a leading provider of 9-1-1 technology solutions, has expanded its Positron suite of call handling products to bring the same strong combination of functionality, flexibility and control that larger agencies enjoy to smaller PSAPs at a competitive price.

The new Positron^® VIPER™ SE is designed for PSAPs with up to five positions and is the latest addition to Intrado’s market-leading portfolio of VIPER emergency call processing equipment. Bundled with the Intrado public safety grade emergency services network, the VIPER SE is scalable to handle additional call-taking positions as agencies grow, with minimal incremental investment.

“We developed Positron VIPER SE to ensure that smaller agencies have access to affordable, high-quality call processing equipment that can evolve to support their future needs and new 9-1-1 capabilities,” said Kerri Fielder, vice president and general manager of Intrado’s Call Handling Division. “With the addition of VIPER SE, Intrado now offers the broadest and most flexible suite of advanced, Internet Protocol (IP) call processing equipment on the market.”
