Algo 8188 SIP PoE Ceiling Speaker

$636.00

The Algo 8188 SIP PoE Ceiling Speaker is a discreet, high-performance IP ceiling speaker designed for clear voice paging, emergency notifications, loud ringing, and background music in indoor environments. At CCI, we deploy the Algo 8188 alongside UniFi networks throughout Tennessee — ideal for offices, schools, hospitals, retail stores, medical facilities, conference rooms, and any drop-ceiling or suspended-ceiling application where professional audio delivery is required without traditional analog systems.

This UL2043-compliant speaker installs flush into air-handling (plenum) spaces, features a 6.5" coaxial music-capable driver, supports wideband G.722 audio for excellent speech intelligibility, and includes ambient noise monitoring for automatic volume adjustment. Dual SIP extensions allow separate channels for live paging and notification/alerting, while RTP multicast enables scalable zoning across multiple speakers. Talkback (two-way communication) is supported via the built-in microphone, and a programmable relay output can trigger external devices like strobes or doors.

Powered by a single PoE cable (IEEE 802.3af), the 8188 integrates seamlessly with UniFi Talk or other SIP-based PBX systems and works perfectly with UniFi switches (such as the USW-Pro-48-POE) for clean, network-managed audio deployments. CCI handles the complete installation: ceiling tile cutout, precise speaker placement for optimal coverage, PoE integration, SIP registration and extension configuration, multicast zoning setup, ambient noise calibration, emergency alert testing, and ongoing monitoring, firmware updates, and support.

Whether you're adding overhead paging to an office, enabling fire/evacuation alerts in a school, or providing background music in a retail space, the Algo 8188 delivers reliable, crystal-clear audio with full IP scalability and no recurring hardware licensing fees.
