There's more to a communications endpoint portfolio in today's rapidly evolving marketplace than desk phones or video cameras. In many locations, including hospitals, schools, and larger offices, a SIP-based speaker can be an essential way to broadcast messages quickly and effectively to a larger group of people. SIP speakers are a critical component in the development of a reliable communication and security strategy.
