It has 55 installs sharing analytics, works locally and was last updated October 26, 2026. SIP Client is a Home Assistant integration that registers as a SIP extension on a PBX for calls, intercoms and Voice Assist. It exposes the phone line as a media player, so text-to-speech or audio URLs can be played into the active call. Actions cover dialing, answering, hanging up, sending DTMF digits, recording call audio to a local WAV file, and bridging a call to the Voice Assist pipeline for multi-turn conversation. It also provides sensors for registration status, last call, negotiated codec and call audio path, plus a Do Not Disturb switch and answer and hang up buttons. Audio uses G.722 when the far end offers it, otherwise G.711, and the codec order can be changed in the options. It works locally over SIP on UDP and is added through the UI with the server address, port and account credentials. Automatic summary of the README and code of eigger/hass-sip.

No vendor cloud in between. - **From the Marketplace**: Installed through the Marketplace, formerly HACS. - **Actively maintained**: Its author released or pushed a change in the last six months. ## Setting it up Install it from the Marketplace and restart Home Assistant, then add it under Settings, Devices and services. ### Configure SIP Client - **SIP Server / Host** - **Port** - **Username / Extension** - **Password** - **Authentication Username (Optional)** - **Domain (Optional)** - **Caller ID (Optional)** - **Outbound Proxy (Optional)** - **Register Expiration (seconds)** - **Local RTP Port (Optional)** - **Media timeout (seconds, 0=disabled)** - **Max call duration (seconds, 0=unlimited)** - **Use server-observed address (NAT)**: Enable when Home Assistant is behind NAT/SNAT toward the SIP server (for example a firewall that rewrites the source address) and calls have no audio. The address the server sees (Via received/rport) is advertised in Contact and SDP instead of the local interface address. Also asked when changing the connection. ### After setup - **Codec preference**: Choose which audio codecs are offered and in what order. If calls have one-way audio (for example on a FRITZ!Box negotiating G.722), pick a G.711-only preset. Saving reloads the account.
