When deployed with Zoom One Phone, Algo endpoints deliver critical premise-based communication. Algo and Zoom effectively broadcast voice paging, visual alerting, emergency communication, loud ringing, and secure door entry. Together, Algo and Zoom often promote coordination between the different departments of an organization or enterprise, improving engagement, efficiency, and productivity.
Organizations deploy Algo and Zoom across various verticals, commonly in healthcare and manufacturing. Algo and Zoom typically see a significant amount of deployments in education.
Deploying Algo within Zoom Environment
Algo IP Endpoints have been tested and certified for interoperability within the Zoom platform. To deploy Algo devices within Zoom One, users require the following:
- Access to Algo’s web interface
- Access to the Zoom Portal
- Running Firmware v3.2.3 or higher
- Device certificate installed
For full deployment details, please see the Zoom Configuration Guide.
Algo products offer support for secure SIP using TLS and SRTP. The devices are designed to facilitate central provisioning, and can be seamlessly integrated into both cloud-based and premise-based network supervision systems. Within the Zoom ecosystem, Algo endpoints enhance communication capabilities by providing features such as on-premise voice paging, loud ringing, emergency alerting, and secure door entry control. Algo’s range of Zoom VoIP devices has found successful deployment in various sectors, including education, retail, and manufacturing environments.
Applications
in Zoom
Algo IP Endpoints are powerful yet versatile Zoom devices that can serve a variety of applications. While commonly deployed in education and healthcare facilities, Algo IP Endpoints deliver the following to most Zoom VoIP environments:
- Voice Paging & Public Address (PA): Deliver both live and pre-recorded messages for general announcements and communication to mass audiences.
- Emergency Notification: Broadcast loud audible announcements of emergency messages and tones to provide notification to occupants of a building during an emergency.
- Loud Ringing: Provide solutions for effective audible alerting in noisy or noise-sensitive environments where a regular telephone ring or night bell may go unnoticed.
- Secure Door Entry: Easily establish two-way talk with visitors and deploy effective solutions for secure door entry and door control.

Voice Paging in Zoom
Algo IP Speakers and IP Paging Adapters provide simple yet effective voice paging solutions for environments of any size, particularly in education. Able to seamlessly integrate with Zoom, Algo devices and accessories create an intuitive system. Algo devices extend the reach of a Zoom voice paging system in schools, universities, and other education facilities. Typically, organizations deploy Algo IP Endpoints for voice paging in Zoom environments in one of two methods:
- Full IP Solution: Deploying a full set of Algo IP Speakers for a full IP-based paging system. A full IP solution may also include other Algo endpoints and accessories.
- IP-Enabled Solution: Deploying Algo IP Paging Adapters to IP-enable legacy voice paging infrastructure.

Emergency Notifications in Zoom
Algo IP Endpoints deliver highly noticeable solutions for emergency notification and alerting. Using a combination of loudspeakers and highly visible LEDs, Algo’s range of Zoom devices delivers effective emergency communication systems within various environments.
The combination of Algo IP Speakers for loud and distinctive alerts, along with Algo IP Visual Alerters that use eye-catching colors and flashing patterns to enhance visibility, make them ideal for noisy environments or situations requiring hearing protection. Algo devices enable organizations to send targeted alerts, including code calls in hospitals and lockdown notifications in educational settings, ensuring quick and effective communication during critical events to keep building occupants informed.

Loud Ringing in Zoom
Deploying Algo IP Speakers is a quick and efficient way to achieve loud ringing in a Zoom environment. Algo speakers are designed to produce high volumes, ensuring that users can hear a telephone ring or night bell. Organizations may deploy Algo speakers for loud ringing in locations such as school gymnasiums, hospital wards, or manufacturing floors.
When deployed in Zoom, Algo speakers ensure effective delivery of loud ringing. Algo speakers incorporate embedded dynamic volume control and wideband audio to make the speakers easily heard through background noise.

Secure Door Entry in Zoom
Algo offers a range of IP Intercoms, enabling organizations to select an effective solution for secure door entry within Zoom environments. Zoom has certified select Algo IP Intercoms, making the intercoms suitable to maintain security in schools or enforcing restrictions in hospitals. Algo intercoms enable users to establish a secure and dependable means of two-way communication with visitors and efficiently manage access control.
Algo intercoms are outdoor-rated and include several variations, including a two-part solution for extra security, preventing tampering. In a Zoom environment, Algo intercoms are used for:
- Visitor communication and access control
- Emergency and non-emergency access points
- Office or room secure areas.
Algo’s Range of Zoom Phone Certified Hardware
Algo offers a suite of Zoom-compatible devices. Organizations can select from amongst various Algo endpoints to create an intuitive VoIP ecosystem. An Algo and Zoom system can incorporate voice paging, emergency alerting, loud ringing, and secure door entry. Together, Algo’s IP Speakers, Paging Adapters, Intercoms, and Visual Alerters can deliver effective audible and visual communication directly from a Zoom platform.
Algo IP Endpoints extend the reach of a Zoom ecosystem. By leveraging multicast, Algo endpoints can ensure the delivery of communication across all areas of a building or environment. Algo devices enable organizations to scale communication systems to reach all occupants on a property.

How to Deploy Zoom with Algo
Adding Algo to Zoom Web Portal
As third-party SIP devices, Algo IP Endpoints can register in Zoom as Zoom phone certified hardware. Most Algo devices support TLS and SRTP for session and media encryption. While some exceptions apply, Algo devices supporting these encryptions are compatible with Zoom Phones.
Adding Algo devices to the Zoom Web Portal is simple. Users can register Algo IP Endpoints to Zoom Phone by creating a new common area phone in the Zoom Web Portal. Once added, users need to add the Zoom Provisioning URL to the Algo Device Web Interface. Users can then apply SIP extensions to the Algo devices added to operate as part of the Zoom cloud paging system.
When adding an Algo device to the Zoom Web Portal, users need to input the following Device Type fields:
- Brand: Algo
- Model: algo-sip-based-device
Explore Algo’s Zoom Testing and Configuration Guide.
Device Requirements
Users require the following to register Algo devices in Zoom:
- Access to Algo’s web interface
- Access to the Zoom Portal
- Firmware version 3.2.3 or higher
- Device certificate installed
Assisted Provisioning
Zoom Phones include Algo devices and provide support for assisted provisioning.
Leveraging Multicast & SIP Registration
Algo IP Endpoints support Zoom Group Page. This enables seamless voice paging and emergency alerting between Algo IP Endpoints and compatible Zoom phones. Leveraging multicast, as few as a single Algo device requires a SIP registration in Zoom. The other Algo endpoints can be configured as multicast receivers. Algo IP Endpoints are designed to work harmoniously with Zoom phones, providing extended communication reach through multicast capabilities.
