In the example configuration, when a 911 call from Lync client arrives on the 

Spacevars

 with the Location Information as Office, Lync will then provide the relevant location profile in the Inbound INVITE message. Sonus SBC 1000/2000

then passes this information to the 911 Provider in the outbound INVITE message.
