|[[LNG (Legacy Network Gateway)]] || An NG9-1-1 Functional Element that provides an interface between an un-upgraded legacy origination network and the NGCS.  Note that an LNG 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.

|Log Event Replicator
|A LogEventReplicator has interfaces identical to LogEvent (NENA STA-010 Section 5.13.3). It can take a stream of LogEvents on its input port(s) and replicate them to each of its provisioned output ports. One of the output ports may be connected to the logging service, in which case all FEs that log would send their LogEvents to the replicator, which would copy them to the logging service and the other devices connected to the replicator. The replicator may be integrated into the logging service, may be stand-alone, or may be integrated into another FE.

| Logging Service || An event and media logger. The Logging Service accepts log event records and media streams in a standardized form, stores them, and provides a standardized retrieval function for these records. {{PSAP}} {{NGCS}} {{EIDD}}

| [[MCS (MSAG Conversion Service)]] || A web service providing conversion between NG9-1-1 PIDF-LO and Legacy MSAG data. {{NGCS}}
 
|-
| [[MIS (Management Information System)]] || The MIS Functional Element provides reporting services based on data collected from FEs. From NENA/APCO-REQ-001.1.1-2016 {{EIDD}} {{PSAP}}
|-
| [[Policy Store]] || A database that holds policy rules. {{PSAP}} {{NGCS}}
 
|-
| [[PSAP (Public Safety Answering Point)]] || An entity responsible for receiving 9-1-1 calls and processing those calls according to a specific operational policy. A PSAP is considered a single FE within the context of the NGCS, but of course, would be constructed of multiple FEs within the PSAP. {{PSAP}}
 
|-
| SR (Selective Router) || The Central Office switch that provides the tandem switching of 9-1-1 calls. It controls delivery of the voice call with ANI to the PSAP and provides Selective Routing, Speed Calling, Selective Transfer, Fixed Transfer, and certain maintenance functions for each PSAP.<br />
Also known as Enhanced 9-1-1 Control Office, E9-1-1 Tandem
|-
| 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. From NENA/APCO-REQ-001.1.1-2016 {{EIDD}} {{PSAP}}
 
|-
| [[MIS (Management Information System)]] || The MIS Functional Element provides reporting services based on data collected from FEs. From NENA/APCO-REQ-001.1.1-2016 {{EIDD}} {{PSAP}}
|-
| [[RMS (Records Management System)]] || A database holding historical records of incidents and other PSAP records. From NENA/APCO-REQ-001.1.1-2016 {{EIDD}} {{PSAP}}
