Amazon Chime Now Supports SIP-Based In-Room Video Conference Systems

Posted on: Jan 23, 2018

Starting today, you can use Amazon Chime with video conferencing systems that support Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) for high quality online meetings. With this update, you can join Amazon Chime meetings using your existing video teleconferencing (VTC) systems that support either SIP or H.323 without the need to purchase new equipment.

To join an Amazon Chime meeting using a SIP video system, enter meet.chime.in followed by the meeting ID from a VTC device console. IT administrators can learn more about configuring VTC systems to work with Amazon Chime at In-Room Video Conference Room Support.

Amazon Chime is a secure, real-time, communications service that simplifies video conferencing, online meetings, calls and chat. There is no additional cost to use SIP VTC systems with Amazon Chime. Amazon Chime offers pay-as-you-go pricing, with no upfront payments, and no infrastructure to deploy. You can try Amazon Chime for free for 30 days by visiting the Amazon Chime download page.
