Fully compatible with SIP industry standards, the SIP Doorphone will work with most hosted or enterprise SIP-based servers supporting third-party SIP endpoints. The 8028 is a two component product for easy installation into existing construction utilizing existing intercom wiring at the door. No network connectivity is required at the outdoor intercom and the door relay connection is located safely indoors.
During the intercom call the telephone keypad can be used to enter a door open code (e.g. digit 6, or up to four digits). Once activated the 8028 access control relay will permit a momentary unlock of the entrance for the visitor to gain access through the door or gate in a secure and efficient manner.

Anti-Door Tamper A feature of the 8028 is to ring the telephone(s) with a warning alert in the event a door is ajar due to tampering (such as a door blocked open after being legitimately released for a visitor).
Control Unit pluggable terminal socket. 3. Connect the 8028 (G2) Control Unit to a network port. If the network switch supports PoE (IEEE 802.3af 15W) or PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at 30W) then the control unit will power up as indicated by the blue power light on the front.

8028 SIP Doorphone (G2) FW 3.2 9. Verify the extension is properly registered with the SIP server in the Status tab. Ensure the SIP Registration is “Successful”. 10. Press the Call Button on the Door Station, then answer the phone to communicate over the Door station.
Installation Door Station Installation The Door Station, provided with the 8028 Doorphone kit, is weather protected for outdoor installation. However if network cabling extends beyond the perimeter of the building then adequate lightning protection is required to protect the cabling and network switch from lightning surges.

◦ Fasten the Door Station to the surface mount bezel and install faceplate For two-gang flush mount (or surface mount using Algo 3100 or electrical box with conduit): ◦ Discard the larger surface mount gasket and bracket. ◦ Place the surface mount gasket onto the rear of the door station against the flange.
The 8028 is configurable using the web interface or provisioning features. After boot up, the red call button will turn on and the 8028 will have obtained an IP address. If there is no DHCP server the 8028 will default to the static IP address 192.168.1.111.
If more current or a different voltage is required, then the customer must provide a matching power supply for the electric strike or magnetic lock. Maximum switching capability of the 8028 door control contacts is 1 A, 30 V. Pre-Wiring Instructions...
Open Code is pressed from the telephone keypad during a call with the 8028. This light shows the state of the relay, and verifies that it has activated. If the “unlock” light activates, but the door fails to unlock, please contact your electrician to check the connections and wiring to the door strike.
8028 SIP Doorphone (G2) FW 3.2 Reset To return all settings to a factory default, reboot or power cycle the 8028. Wait until the Power Led flashes, and then press and hold the reset button until the LED start to double flash.
This is useful for when third-party devices or attackers may try to intercept, replicate, or alter Algo products, and try to connect to the server. TLS protocol will ensure that third parties cannot read/modify any actual data. Previously security was less of a concern because phone systems were on isolated networks, but hosted services are becoming increasingly more common.

8028 SIP Doorphone (G2) FW 3.2 HTTPS Provisioning Provisioning can be secured by setting the ‘Download Method’ to ‘HTTPS’ (under the Advanced Settings > Provisioning tab). This prevents configuration files from being read by an unwanted third-party. This resolves the potential risk of having sensitive data stolen, such as admin passwords and SIP credentials.

Important: In order for a SIP server to validate the Algo device, an additional certificate has to be manually installed on the 8028. To add this user certificate file use any valid X.509 format and have the file named ‘sipclient’. This is done by manually adding a file named ‘sipclient’, which contains a device certificate and private key, to the ‘certs’...
Web Interface Status and Login Web Interface Login The web interface requires a password which is ‘algo’ by default. This password can be changed in the Admin tab after logging in the first time. Web Interface is accessed by entering the 8028’s IP Address into a web browser.
The device’s Status page will be available before and after log on. The section can be used to check the 8028’s SIP Registration status of the SIP extension, Call Status, Proxy Status, Extension to Dial, Door Station status, and general MAC, IP, Netmask, and Date/Time information.
The IP address (e.g. 192.168.1.111) or domain name (e.g. myserver.com) of the SIP Server SIP Extension This is the SIP extension used to register the 8028 with the SIP Server. Authentication ID May also be called Username for some SIP servers and in some cases may be the same as the SIP extension.
Answer Inbound Call Allow the 8028 to auto-answer an inbound call. By default, this functionality is activated. Answer Tone Select a tone to be played over the speaker when the intercom answers an inbound call.
Page 26
This feature can be used to set a limit on how long the intercom will ring before timing out. If the call is not answered within this time period, the 8028 will go back to an idle state. Ringback Tone Select an audible ringback tone to be played on the 8028 speaker until the call is answered.

Each 8028 SIP Doorphone has its own IP address, and shares a common multicast IP and port number (multicast zone) for multicast packets. The 8028 is able to act as a multicast Slave, allowing it to receive multicast messages (i.e. one-way audio) from a Master device and play it over the intercom speaker.

Slave Zones Select one or more multicast zones for the 8028 SIP Doorphone to monitor. Note that multicast zone priority is based on the zone definition list order (top to bottom) available under Advanced Settings >...

Polycom Groups configured on the Algo device. If an Algo device is used as a Multicast master, a tone does not have to be set as the Algo master will provide its own tone. Polycom Group Tones can be set in Advanced Settings > Advanced Multicast tab.
DHCP is an IP standard designed to make administration of IP addresses simpler. When DHCP is selected, it will automatically configure the IP addresses for each 8028 on the network. Alternatively the 8028 can be set to a static IP address.
Page 35
8028 SIP Doorphone (G2) FW 3.2 IPv6 Method Select between DHCP or static. If static is selected enter the IPv6 address and gateway information. VLAN Mode Enables or Disables VLAN Tagging. VLAN Tagging is the networking standard that supports Virtual LANs (VLANs) on an Ethernet network. The standard defines a system of VLAN tagging for Ethernet frames and the accompanying procedures to be used by bridges and switches in handling such frames.
Password to log into the 8028 SIP Doorphone web interface. You should change the default password algo in order to secure the device on the network. If you have forgotten your password, you will need to perform a reset using the Reset Button in order to restore the password (as well as all other settings) back to the original factory default conditions.

SIP message used to poll servers to monitor availability. Keep-alive Method If Double CRLF is selected the 8028 SIP Doorphone will send a packet every 30 seconds (unless changed) to maintain connection with the SIP Server if behind NAT. Keep-alive Interval Interval in seconds that the CRLF message should be sent.
When paging to the 8028 SIP Doorphone as well as other third party devices, the low latency of the 8028 may cause the audio to lead other devices. By adding audio delay up to one second, the 8028 may be synchronized with other endpoints or telephones that have greater latency.

For instance, emergency pages can be louder on certain Slave endpoints. Polycom Slave Tones A tone may be set for any of the 25 Polycom Groups. If using an Algo device as a Multicast master, it is recommended to set the slave tones to “None” to avoid conflicts, as the Algo devices already multicast a tone by default.
