[VoiceOps] SIP door intercom-phones

[Oren Yehezkely]

Carlos,

I have been using 2N for several years now. It is not cheap at all, but
once you get it installed it works just great. It is a full IP phone, not
just a speaker or an intercom. Mine also has video which you can watch on a
video phone, such as GrandStream.
I am not sure if it has WiFi, but I am using it with POE so it has a wire
anyways.
Some other great advantage is that it has an RFID sensor so the door can be
opened with multiple unique cards or keyfobs.
I think that you can also get it today with Bluetooth or NFC, which will
make it even more convenient.

I would recommend it whole heatedly, and I am not affiliated with 2N.

Good luck!
