Intercoms and SIP Integration: The Future of Access Control
Today, intercoms are much more than just a doorbell with a camera. For installers, the question is no longer “Which intercom should I choose?” but rather “How can I integrate this intercom into my client’s broader communication system?” This is where SIP integration comes into play.
What is SIP and Why is it Important for Intercoms?
SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) is a global standard used for VoIP telephony. Practically, this means a SIP-enabled intercom can directly communicate with:
VoIP-phones
PBX systems
Softphones and apps on smartphones or laptops
The major advantage No closed systems or costly licenses, but open integration with existing infrastructure.
Benefits of SIP Intercoms for Installers
Project Flexibility A SIP intercom can be connected directly to an existing VoIP or cloud PBX, making it easier to deploy intercoms in offices, businesses, and apartment buildings without additional complex wiring.
Cost Savings for Clients Since SIP is an open standard, fewer additional modules or licenses are needed — a strong selling point for budget-conscious clients.
Remote Management and Updates Many SIP intercoms can be easily configured and updated over the network. Less on-site work means more efficiency for you as an installer.
Scalability From single-family homes to large office buildings, SIP allows systems to expand easily with multiple indoor stations, phones, or full call routing.
Concrete Applications of SIP Intercoms
Office buildings
Forward entrance calls from the intercom to reception or security VoIP phones.
Apartement buildings
Each resident can link their own device (smartphone, softphone, VoIP phone) to the intercom.
Remote Work Scenarios
Intercom calls can be routed to a user’s smartphone or laptop, wherever they are.
