Algo 8180 IP Audio Alerter
The Algo 8180 IP Audio Alerter is a SIP-compliant, PoE-powered network audio device designed for loud ringing and voice paging. It features dual endpoints: one for playing audio files upon ring detection and another for auto-answering voice paging with two-way talkback. Equipped with a high-efficiency amplifier and a high-quality speaker, it delivers sound significantly louder than standard telephone speakers. The device includes SoundSure technology, which automatically adjusts volume levels based on ambient background noise to ensure clarity in variable environments.
This device functions as a network-managed SIP endpoint that eliminates the need for local power supplies through Power over Ethernet support. It offers versatile notification options by allowing users to select from pre-loaded alert tones or upload custom WAV files, music, and voice announcements. The integrated SoundSure technology provides intelligent ambient noise compensation, ensuring that paging and ringing are always audible without being excessively loud. Furthermore, the unit supports multicasting for wide-area notifications and provides outputs for external speakers, slave amplifiers, or visual alerters, making it highly adaptable for professional communication systems.
The Algo 8180 may not be the ideal solution for environments requiring extremely high-fidelity music reproduction, as it is primarily engineered for voice paging and alert signaling. Additionally, it requires a SIP-compliant network infrastructure, making it unsuitable for legacy analog-only telephone systems without additional conversion equipment.
The device is configured via a web interface or dedicated feature buttons. Once connected to a PoE-enabled network, it registers with a SIP server to function as a dual-endpoint device. Users can upload custom audio files or select from pre-loaded tones to suit specific notification needs. The SoundSure feature should be enabled to allow the device to automatically monitor and adjust output volume based on the surrounding noise levels.
Usage recommendations: For optimal performance in large or high-noise areas, consider integrating the device with an external horn speaker to maximize sound output. Regularly test the ambient noise compensation settings to ensure the device responds correctly to changes in your specific environment.
