#2 The Algo 8180 SIP Audi Alerter (NEW)
Ideal for: A noisy or large workplace such as warehouses, restaurants and machines ships where you tend to miss phone calls because you just can’t hear the ringtones.
The Algo 8180 is a SIP compliant PoE speaker designed for voice paging, loud ringing, and emergency notification. With its high-efficient amplifier and loudspeaker, the Algo 8180 is able to generate an 8 times louder tone than a normal telephone ringer (which means no more missed calls!). The SoundSure technology adjusts loud ring and paging volume to compensate for background ambient noise, protecting your hearing from overly loud volume.
“The Algo 8180 is one of the easiest setups you can find, extremely loud, and very reliable. Instead of adding an extension or “seat” to the noisy site, you can simply pair the Algo 8180 with the Algo 2506 detector which detects the audio from the headset jack and activates 8180 alerter directly without using SIP.” – Brian Hyrek, Senior VoIP consultant at VoIP Supply
The Algo 8180’s most useful features include:
- Dual purpose loud ringing and talkback voice paging
- SoundSure ambient noise compensation adjusts output for noise level
