Algo 8180 SIP Alerter: Seven Advantages over ATA based PA Solutions

algo8180 warehouse

Why should you be interested in the ALGO 8180 SIP Alerter? What makes it special?

Moving over to IP communications can often lead to connecting existing analogue PA systems to a new IP system by using an ATA (analogue telephone adaptor). But there are significant advantages in deploying an all-in-one IP Solution.

The Algo 8180 eliminates the need for an ATA offering new capabilities of performance, scalability and user experience.

Seven advantages over ATA based Door Entry Solutions:

1. Easy to install
The 8180 connects to your IP network as just another endpoint. Installation and set up are are as easy as adding an IP phone to your system and it is powered via the network cable from a POE switch.

2. Web interface
Provisioning and administering changes to the 8180 can be carried out any time via its intuitive web interface. No need to physically go to the device to make changes.

3. Ambient Noise Compensation
The 8180 microphone listens to the ambient noise and automatically adjusts output volume. Perfect for variable environments like workshops, classrooms and cafeterias.

4. Effective Ring Tones
No more shrill high frequency ring tones. Choose from a wide range of pre-loaded WAV files or up-load your own ring tones to suit your own specific business environment.

5. Multicast Scalability
The 8180 can generate a multicast audio stream to additional 8180s on the network for additional loud ringing, paging or announcements. No need for any central amplifier or paging server.

6. Paging, Loud Ringing & Announcements
The 8180 is a multi – capable speaker, serving effectively as a paging, loud ringing and PA announcement system all-in-one. Eliminating the need for multiple devices.

7. Talk-back
The 8180 microphone supports talk back in page mode for two way communication and verification.

The Algo 8180 is an all in one IP paging solution eliminating the need for multi component solutions and associated wiring.


Further information about the ALGO 8180 including datasheets

The Algo 8180’s are in stock. If you have any questions please call the Sales Team on 01484 840048 or send an email to contact@provu.co.uk.

Recommended Iphone/Ipad app for Protalk/Fermax Door entry system

Lots of people have been asking us to recommend an app that works with the Protalk/Fermax IP range of door entry systems. Though there are hundreds of them on the Apple store, not all work perfectly with Protalk’s IP door entry system.

Problem :

There are 2 main issues.

1. Multitasking

Multitasking means running an app in the background while the user can do other things. It is important to install/buy an app that supports multitasking if you wish to receive calls when the ipad/iphone is in sleep mode.

2. SIP over TCP support

Apple only ever allows a SIP application to work in the background (multitask) when it supports SIP over TCP. Its just the way they have built IOS(Apple’s operating system). When buying an app to work with a hosted solution or a PBX provider, make sure they support SIP over TCP.

Solution:

The solution is to use a PBX/Hosted provider which supports SIP over TCP or alternatively buy a SARK200 PBX which, along with offering other benefits, works for both video and audio over the TCP protocol. For for information about SARK 200 please click here.

Recommended Applications :

Audio /Video Application:

There are two applications that we have successfully tested with the Protalk video entry system.

Acrobits Softphone
UDVguard

Audio only applications :

For audio only door entry system you can use :

Linphone
Acrobits
Bria SIP phone

Please note that ProVu do not develop these applications. If the application crashes or stops working due to an update we cannot be held responsible. You will have to liaise with the company who develop these apps.

    Notes

    The old part codes will be shown alongside the new ones in automatic stock feeds until 1st May 2013.

    All references to part codes in the order history etc will be updated to show the new part codes.

    Long term, better for everybody to change to ordering with the new codes.
