Snom was founded in 1996 with in Berlin, Germany. In 1996, Snom commenced production of VoIP telephones with the introduction of the Snom 100 model.^[1] It was initially based on the H.323 protocol, but gained SIP support the following year. In 2000, the company saw the opportunity to make interoperable components for enterprise communication systems.^{[citation needed]} Instead of selling one telephony platform solution, the company would sell VoIP phones that are compatible across standards-based platforms from different vendors. This became possible with the introduction of the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP).
