Algo 1199 Satellite Surface Mount Speaker - Cost-Effective Expansion for the Algo 8199
If you're building or upgrading an IP-based paging and notification setup, covering large areas like hallways, warehouses, classrooms, or patient rooms can get expensive fast. Extra network cables, PoE switches, and individual SIP licenses for every speaker add up quickly. That's where the Algo 1199 Satellite Surface Mount Speaker comes in – it's a smart, budget-friendly way to extend high-quality audio from your existing Algo 8199 IP PoE+ Surface Mount Speaker without those headaches.
Designed specifically to partner with the Algo 8199, this satellite speaker lets you daisy-chain up to three 1199 units to a single host speaker using simple CAT5e or CAT6 patch cables. You get broader coverage in one go, all powered through the main 8199's PoE+ connection – no need for additional power supplies or Ethernet drops at each location.
What really sets the 1199 apart is how seamlessly it integrates. It looks identical to the 8199 and delivers the exact same wideband HD audio performance, so your sound stays consistent across the entire area. The satellite speakers automatically sync with the host: they follow the same paging zones, volume levels, and even respond to ambient noise adjustments using the 8199's built-in microphone. That means clearer announcements in noisy environments, without manual tweaks.
Installation and management are straightforward too. The 8199 detects and monitors each connected 1199 automatically – you'll see the status right in the web interface or through an Algo 8300 Supervision Controller if you're using one for centralized oversight. It's perfect for environments where reliability matters, like schools for bell schedules and emergency alerts, healthcare facilities for nurse calls and notifications, offices for general paging, or any commercial space needing scalable VoIP communication.
