| Bridge || Bridges (also referred to as "conference bridges" or "conference servers") are used in NG9-1-1 to transfer calls and conduct conferences. These have a SIP signaling interface to create and maintain conferences and media mixing capability. Conference Servers MUST be multimedia-capable (voice, video, text). In some deployments, all emergency calls are answered at a “Conference-Aware UA” which acts as a B2BUA until/unless a transfer or conference is needed, in which case it becomes the "Conference Bridge". When calls are "answered at a bridge" and when calls are forwarded by a bridge, the bridge generates an EIDD.

| [[ESRP (Emergency Services Routing Proxy)]] || The ESRP is an instance of a SIP Proxy Server; an intermediary which routes calls. Note that an ESRP contains a Policy Routing Function, but the PRF is not a separate FE.

| IDX (Incident Data eXchange) || An EIDD coalescing function that provides a consolidated agency view of the current state of an incident by combining EIDDs generated by multiple constituent FEs within a PSAP. An IDX is usually the source of EIDDs for entities outside the PSAP. Another use is an element that combines EIDDs from multiple agencies working an incident to form an overall incident state.

| [[LPG (Legacy PSAP Gateway)]] || An NG9-1-1 Functional Element which provides an interface between an ESInet and an un-upgraded PSAP. Note that an LPG contains a Location Interworking function (LIF), a Protocol Interworking Function (PIF) and an NG9-1-1 Interworking Function (NIF), but the LIF, PIF, and NIF are not separate FEs.

| RDS (Responder Data Services) || A Functional Element that enables near real-time wireless data transmissions between PSAPs and emergency responder devices. This includes transmitting dispatch information, creating new Incidents, updating active and closed Incidents. The Responder Data Services FE can support the transmission and receipt of media or a reference (i.e. URL) to that media. The RDS may include the "Radio Interface".  From NENA/APCO-REQ-001.1.1-2016
