Polycom Group Paging
The 8186 SIP Horn Speaker has been designed to support Polycom Group Paging.
The 8186 can be added to a Polycom Group Page so that voice paging is heard over

8186 to synchronize with voice page over the Polycom telephone speakers

important piece in the Algo device's operation, to ensure the security, integrity, and
