What Surix does

SURIX S.R.L. is a Buenos Aires-headquartered Argentine IP communications hardware and software company that designs, manufactures, and distributes electronic intercoms, IP access control systems, IP public-address (voceo) platforms, and IP-based hospital nurse call systems for professional installers and integrators. Founded in 1998 as a telephone-network electronic doorbell pioneer in Latin America, the company has evolved from analog product lines to a full IP SIP-based portfolio, while continuing to sell legacy analog door intercoms for 2-wire and 4-wire installations. The technology stack rests on proprietary printed-circuit-board controllers — the compact CA19v2 SIP board, the CA88 8-input/8-output control node, and the CA20A4 4-speaker audio node — which enable analog-to-IP retrofit, multi-protocol interoperability (SIP 2.0, HTTP, MQTT, REST API), and use of existing data-network cabling instead of dedicated wiring. SURIX's brands include IP Access (Compact and Titanium door intercoms), IP Entrix (multi-family intercoms), Family IP (unifamily), WANpage (voceo platform with server, console, ceiling, wall, and outdoor horn speakers), Help IP (hospital nurse call family), QR Intercom (cloud-based building directory), VoIPBell (iOS/Android remote-access app), and SONi (pre-recorded announcer).

The business model is B2B and project-based. SURIX does not sell direct to end users; instead it distributes through 25+ Argentine distributors and an international dealer network spanning Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Spain, Mexico, Peru, Uruguay, and Israel, supported by a certified installer program. Revenue streams are (1) hardware product sales (intercom panels, IP nodes, speakers/horns, hospital calling components), (2) software and system solutions including WANpage, Help IP, and IP Access management platforms that can be deployed locally or in the cloud, and (3) professional services revenue from training and certifying installers. Pricing is quote-based with multi-year contracts; no public price list exists. Customers include named hospitals and clinics (Hospital Británico, CEMIC, Swiss Medical network, Hospital San José Costa Rica, Hospital CASMU Uruguay, Hospital Aranda de la Parra Mexico), multifamily buildings, and industrial/commercial voceo deployments. Distribution offices are maintained in Argentina (Vicente López), Israel (Tel Aviv), and Mexico (Mexico City). The company is private, founder-owned, and operates without disclosed institutional funding or M&A activity.
