8300 Controller

Algo IP Endpoint Supervisor for Enterprise Deployments

The 8300 Algo IP Endpoint Supervisor (Controller) is designed for centralized device monitoring and supervision of Algo IP endpoints, particularly with larger enterprise deployments. Any Algo SIP product including speakers, paging adapters, strobe lights and door phones/intercoms are supported by the 8300. Common application environments include education, healthcare, manufacturing, plant/utility, retail,
and more.

Endpoint status is displayed in a convenient browser-based dashboard, with available options to configure notification alerts. The 8300 is capable of providing notifications such as audio output or SIP Call, as well as email. Recipients will be alerted when a monitored device is unreachable. A multicast feature allows the 8300 to broadcast an audio notification tone to multiple Slave endpoints. Multicasting allows for a scalable and cost-effective means of designing large scale paging and alerting solutions, with minimal network traffic and as few as one SIP extension for the registered Master endpoint sending the multicast. Any number and combination of Algo IP speakers, paging adapters and strobe lights can be part of an RTP multicast.

The 8300 Algo IP Endpoint Supervisor (Controller) is UL/CSA, FCC and CE certified.

User Manual

Centralized Supervision & Monitoring

The 8300 provides supervision and monitoring of Algo IP endpoints, and to notify / alert when a device is not unreachable or offline. Configuration options include playing an alert via multicast and/or audio output. Alternatively, a SIP call to a target extension can be configured to play a message as an alert. In either scenario email alerts can be simultaneously configured. Any number and combination of Algo IP speakers, paging adapters and strobe lights can be part of an RTP multicast for notification purposes, where multicast zones can direct alerts to specific locations as desired.

In addition to offline status, other device status conditions visible via the 8300 dashboard include: online, software failure, SNMP disabled, and warning if the Controller is trying to reach the device. Monitoring intervals are also configurable.

Email alerts can also be configured in the 8300 for disconnected devices and heartbeat monitoring, even if no devices are offline.

Device details such as IP address, MAC address, Algo part no. and username of the device are also displayed in the dashboard, providing a convenient high-level summary of all Algo endpoints deployed. Up to 350 endpoints are currently supported.

Benefits of the Algo IP Endpoint Supervisor

  • Network supervision and monitoring of Algo IP endpoints to ensure higher system reliability, particularly for mission critical voice paging and emergency notification deployments.
  • Web browser convenience for centralized Algo device details and status condition.
  • Efficient time-saving management and problem resolution of Algo IP endpoints to minimize downtime.
  • Improved RoI.
  • PoE (IEEE 802.3af).
