Kristian McCann sits down with Ryan Zoehner, CEO at Algo Communication Products, and Ariel Posvolsky, Director of Customer Success Engineering at Algo, to unpack how manufacturers can finally bring their industrial floors into the unified communications era.
Modern factories run 24/7, but many still rely on paging systems installed before the internet existed. In this conversation, Ryan and Ariel explain how to turn fragmented radios, DECT phones, sirens, and legacy amps into a cohesive, UC-driven communication fabric that reaches every noisy corner of an industrial site.
Key talking points include:
- Why industrial UC is often an afterthought – and how that fragmentation creates daily communication, safety, and alerting risks on the plant floor.
- How Algo’s SIP- and multicast-enabled IP speakers, visual alerters, and paging adapters bridge legacy analog systems into platforms like Cisco, Microsoft Teams, and RingCentral.
- Practical ways to meet OSHA and ADA expectations using a mix of clear audible paging, strobes, and IP displays for inclusive messaging in 80+ dB environments.
- What a phased migration looks like in the real world, using “Lego block” IP endpoints to protect existing investments while moving toward a full IP architecture.
