How Algo Intercoms Work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Algo Intercoms provide hands-free visitor communication at secure entrance doors and gates. The intercoms are outdoor rated, and designed for durability, longevity and security. Algo IP Intercoms are available in various form factors that are fit for purpose, ensuring users can meet the specific operational needs of their environments.  Algo IP Intercoms are SIP compliant devices, able to connect seamlessly with leading Unified Communication systems. Algo offers both audio and video intercoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Visitors press the call button on the intercom station to initiate calling to a configured extension such as a security desk, building manager, or a hunt group. Answering the intercom call enables two-way communication with the visitor. Generally, any telephone, device, or client on the UC system can communicate with the intercom (e.g., mobile or wireless phone, soft client on a tablet or laptop, desk phone).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alternatively, the intercom can be called directly, where it will auto-answer to permit a two-way voice call via the intercom station. During the intercom call the telephone keypad can be used to enter a door open code (e.g. digit 6, or up to four digits). Once activated the intercom\u2019s access control relay will permit a momentary unlock of the entrance for the visitor to gain access through the door or gate in a secure and efficient manner. Duration of the relay activation is configurable, as is the open code and the extension called from the intercom station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 A separate controller is available with selected models. The controller is a PoE device, providing connectivity to the UC system, and the relay for door access control. As the controller is generally located inside the premise, this offers a secure solution in the event there is tampering of the public-facing intercom station. The relay and network \/ telephone connection are in no way exposed, and unauthorized entry to the building or access to the network is prevented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Algo Intercoms can connect to any type of industry-standard door strike, gate activation system, or access \/ security control panel. A normally open or normally closed relay is available from the Algo controller for this purpose. A door strike is not included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choosing an Algo Intercom<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Algo IP Intercoms enable organizations to easily establish two-way, hands-free visitor communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Algo door intercom systems easily register into most leading UC, Mass Notification, and Collaboration platforms. Using the DTMF functionality through Algo intercoms, users can access door unlock control with a telephone press from a calling or answering device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Algo provides two types of intercoms, audio and video.<\/p>\n<\/div>
