The 8180 SIP Audio Alerter is a SIP compliant PoE network audio device for loud ring and voice paging applications using dual endpoints. When registered with a SIP server, one endpoint will play an audio file from internal memory upon ring detection. The second endpoint will auto-answer for voice paging.

 

Equipped with a high efficiency integrated amplifier and tuned high quality loud speaker, the 8180 is significantly louder than a typical telephone. For loud ringing, several audio files are included with the 8180 and users may also record or upload custom audio files, music, sound effects, or voice announcements. The 8180 sound output outperforms traditional telephone loud ringers for pure loudness but also for the ability to be heard more easily (without irritation or obtrusiveness) at lower volume due to the wideband audio capability with more effective low frequency tones.

The advanced features of the 8180 include SoundSureâ„¢ technology which automatically adjusts loud ring volume to compensate for background ambient noise. For environments with variable noise levels (restaurants, workshops, classrooms etc) the 8180 can step up the volume when necessary to be heard and provide a more comfortable level during quiet periods.

Outputs for external speaker, slave amplifier, or visual alerter plus multicasting capability enable many more options to enhance notification and alert capabilities. Configuration is possible using the feature buttons or web interface.
