The Valcom VIP-801A is an Enhanced Network Audio Port designed to extend voice access to a single zone of one-way paging over an IP-based Local Area Network (LAN) or Wide Area Network (WAN). This device facilitates page zone extension across the network without requiring a dedicated server.
Key features include one audio output, one audio input, two programmable form C relay closures, and an RJ-45 port for network connection. It supports 1 to 11 digit dial plans and offers easy Windows-based setup. An auxiliary audio input and contact closure options for audio indication and door unlocking are also available.
The VIP-801A supports various protocols including DHCP, IGMP v3, UDP, TCP, HTTP, Telnet, and FTP. It utilizes the G.711 (ulaw) voice algorithm with echo suppression. The unit operates on 24 Vdc @ 250 mA and is IEEE 802.3af compatible (Class 3 device). Regulatory compliance includes FCC Part 15 Class A. It features an analog device interface for input (600 ohm impedance, VOX, and contact closure) and an analog output interface (less than 50 ohms impedance, 200 Hz - 3400 Hz frequency response, with relay closure). Please note that a power supply is not included (refer to VC-VIP-324 for compatible power supply).

Paging Operation
Once configured, the VIP-801A allows voice access to a designated paging zone over your IP network. The specific method of initiating a page will depend on your IP PBX or VoIP system's integration with the VIP-801A.
- Bíbẹ̀rẹ̀ Ojú ìwé kan: Dial the configured extension or number associated with the VIP-801A from a compatible phone or softphone on your network.
- Gbigbe ohun: Your voice will be transmitted through the VIP-801A's audio output to the connected paging system.
- Atọka ipo: The red "STATUS" LED on the front panel indicates the operational status of the device. Refer to the troubleshooting section for LED behavior interpretation.
Relay Control (If Configured)
If the programmable form C relay closures are configured, they can be activated via network commands or specific dial codes, depending on your system's setup. This allows for functions such as door unlocking or activating external indicators.
