Precautionary Designations
Mounting
The VIP-201 SIP Paging Gateway is designed for
rack, shelf, or wall mounting.
Rack:
Attach the brackets to the four holes
closest to the front on each side, then mount the
unit to a 19” rack.
Shelf:
Provided with the VIP-201 SIP Paging
Gateway are four rubber stick-on pads. Peel the
pads from their carrier backing and place at the
four corners of the bottom of the unit.
Wall:
Using the brackets and wood screws
provided, secure the VIP-201 SIP Paging
Gateway to the wall.
Power Connections
The preferred method of powering a VIP-201 is
via a power over Ethernet switch meeting the
802.3af specification.
If the rear panel barrel connector is used for
power, the preferred power supply is a Valcom
VIP-324D.
Make all required signal connections before
applying power to the unit.
Network Connection
The VIP-201 has one RJ-45 network connector
on the front panel.
Use a standard Ethernet patch cable to connect
the VIP-201 to an Ethernet switch. If the
Ethernet switch is 802.3af compliant the VIP-201
will draw power from it.
Signal Connections
The VIP-201 has 4 I/O connectors on the rear
panel:
• RCA jack for AUX audio input
• 2 Pin screw terminal for audio output
• 4 Pin screw terminal (not used)
• 6 Pin screw terminal for relay connections
AUX Input:
Local audio may be input via the
rear panel RCA jack. Nominal input impedance
is 600 Ohms. Connect any compatible audio
source using an RCA patch cable. Audio
supplied through the rear panel RCA jack is
transformer coupled to Audio Out whenever it is
idle. This is typically used for background music.
Audio Out:
Typically connects to Self Amplified
Speakers or into an amplifier. AUX Input audio
mutes when Audio Out is receiving page audio.
Relay Channels:
Access to the two form C
relays is provided via a six-pin screw terminal
block. The relays are labeled K1 and K2. Each
relay is brought out on three terminals. The
common contact (COM) is the middle terminal
with the normally closed (N.C.) contact on the
right and the normally open (N.O.) contact on the
left. Relay contacts are rated for 1A @ 24VDC.
