integrators to implement a zone-supportable
paging solu on without the need to
designate a SIP client for each individual
paging point. Page rou ng and
communica on is instead accomplished
na vely in the Barix SIP paging gateway.
Configura on for this capability is required
only once within the client port gateway
firmware, overcoming the problem of
prohibi ve implementa on costs for SIP
solu ons and need for individual client
licenses.
As an example, a person will use the SIP
phone and dial the gateway number,
selec ng the zones which are designated to
carry the message to mul ple loudspeakers
at once. The SIP phones can dial into the
paging system without a dedicated paging
microphone sta on.
The new SIP Zone Paging firmware
represents Barix's latest approach to SIP and
Paging integra on.
