Open Video Interop (OVI) is more than a gateway — it’s your bridge to true video collaboration without limits.
Instead of being just a SIP ↔ WebRTC connector, OVI is built as a powerful developer integration point that transforms the way video platforms connect.

Can extend live and on-demand streams directly into enterprise meeting rooms. Instead of individuals watching from laptops, teams can now watch together from SIP equipped rooms – transforming video into a shared, engaging experience.
Can deliver powerful collaboration in the cloud – but often lack native SIP room connectivity. OVI makes it possible for enterprise-grade video endpoints to instantly connect with these platforms, giving them reach into boardrooms, classrooms, and secure industries where SIP is the norm.
For organizations, OVI means future-proofing existing investments. Every SIP capable room like Cisco/Webex, Poly, Lifesize, Yealink, and Zoom Room system becomes compatible with emerging video platforms, without costly replacements or complex upgrades.

Give all UC platforms the ability to connect with physical video rooms – removing a critical adoption barrier for enterprise customers.
Enable streaming and townhall platforms deliver live events and video-on-demand directly into SIP capable rooms for shared team experiences.
Built on open standards, OVI eliminates silos and unlocks secure, compliant, and future-ready video communication.
With Synergy SKY Open Video Interop (OVI), your SIP capable video conference devices become more than just meeting tools – they become powerful endpoints for enterprise streaming and hybrid events.

Built on open standards, OVI ensures secure, scalable, and standards-compliant connections that are trusted by global enterprises and government sectors alike.
Our REST API is the starting point of the OVI solution and is where you provision the URL to the collaboration session you want to enable for SIP video. Typically this is executed from your backend.
A simple REST API will allow you to publish your URL and in return you will be given a SIP-URI which can be dialed directly from any SIP enabled video conferencing devices that are allowed to dial out on the internet.
The OVI JavaScript Framework is an API that enables your WebRTC-enabled web app to integrate with Synergy SKY CONNECT. When a user dials the SIP-URI (obtained via the OVI CONNECT API), Synergy SKY CONNECT automatically launches a browser session to your web app, providing access to the framework for seamless call handling.
