Interconnections
The only method of powering the VIP-130L-IC IP
Paging Horn is via a Power over Ethernet (PoE)
switch or power injector meeting the 802.3af
specification.
Make all required signal connections before
connecting to Ethernet switch or power injector
meeting the 802.3af specification. Power is
supplied to the horn assembly via the
VIP-LLE Network Extender.
Signal Connections
As shown in Figure 3 and 4, audio output
connections are made on the rear panel of the
VIP-LLE Network Extender. Versions of the
VIP-LLE Network Extender with the color-coded,
8-pin screw connector will connect standard
CAT-5 twisted-pair cable from the rear panel
color coded connector of the VIP-LLE Network
Extender to the supplied VM-186 RJ-45
connector (900 feet maximum distance).
Connect RJ-45 connector of horn to VM-186
RJ-45 socket. For versions of the VIP-LLE
Network Extender with the RJ-45 Audio Output
connector, the horn may be connected directly
to the RJ-45 port. If additional length is
required, any standard T568A or T568B
extension may be used (900 feet maximum).
Network Connection
As shown in Figure 3, the VIP-LLE Network
Extender has one RJ-45 network connector on
the front panel. Use a standard Ethernet patch
cable to connect the NETWORK connector of
the VIP-LLE Network Extender to an 802.3af
compliant PoE port (100m maximum distance).
Setup
The VIP-130L-IC will automatically acquire an IP
address (using DHCP) and connect to the
InformaCast server when connected to the
network and powered up. Information specific to
your application will need to be programmed into
the InformaCast server. Refer to the
InformaCast documentation for further
information.
