Toa N-8000EX Manual

Cutting-edge TOA technology for greater versatility
and improved sound quality
IP Network-Compatible Intercom System
with Packet Audio Technology
N-8000 SERIES
IP INTERCOM SYSTEM

The TOA N-8000 Packet Intercom System opens a
new era for information communication.
The N-8000 is an IP network-compatible intercom system that employs packet audio technology*
1
.
By linking to an existing local network (LAN), wide-area network (WAN*
2
) or optical fiber network, it
is possible to construct an optimal system for in-house or wide-area information communications.
The N-8000 is a communication system capable of duplex conversations between stations,
paging, plus periodic and BGM broadcasts. An echo-canceling feature prevents howling and
echoing during communications and enables hands-free duplex communications between
stations. Moreover, connection to the multi-interface unit makes it possible for users to utilize the
system free of restrictions on operating distance and in a wide range of applications, including
connection to an existing in-house intercom system and hooking up to a door remote or
surveillance camera system for entry- and departure-control.
*
1
Technology that uses IP networks to enable transmission of high-quality voice and music in real time
*
2
To connect via the Internet, it is necessary to assign a fixed global IP address.
TOA's Packet Intercom System comes with a full range of functions that make
the system ideal for use at a range of venues, such as hospitals, factories,
parking garages, schools, ATMs, airports and offices, wherever smooth and
accurate information communications are required.
N-8000Series
IP Intercom System

With its wide array of functions, the Packet Intercom System
ensures easy, worry-free use.
The N-8000 Series comes packed with convenient functions, including such essential functions as Conversation,
Call and Paging. It can also be used as a Security Intercom System with its ability to ensure that a call will be
answered at all times and collaboration with CCTV and Access Control Systems can be configured.

Executive Priority
When a called station is in use, as indicated by a busy tone,
a call-interrupt tone is issued for several seconds, after which
the call in progress is forcibly terminated, to let the call go
through. Each station can be individually designated for
acceptance or refusal of the call interruption operation.
*Stations connected to the N-8010EX cannot be interrupted.
Scan Monitor
The station can scan any selected pre-registered stations for
ambient sound monitoring, in order of registration.
Door Remote Control
External equipment such as an electronic lock can be
controlled by way of the contact output terminals of the Door
Station or the Multi-Interface Unit. When the door remote is
operated from the N-8000MS/8500MS master station
engaged in conversation with the door station, the contact
output terminals of the door station are shorted for a
specified period of time.
Operating Log
System maintenance (Verifying operation log and line supervision)
can also be performed with a personal computer and internet explorer.
The equipment's operated records and a history of voice
communication (both conversation and paging) carried out over a
IP network can be displayed and stored to a PC.

Automatic Transfer
3 modes (Group hunting, Absence transfer and Call forwarding) will
ensure that a call will be transferred to an open line for urgent situations.
Voice Calling
Pressing the PTT key while a continuous ring tone is sounding
enables the caller to make a voice call to the other party. When
the PTT key is released, voice calling reverts to the original
continuous ring tone.
Group Call
When a station is assigned to a group call, if the stations is called,
all stations within that group are simultaneously called
by a continuous call tone.

The N-8000 Series is well-matched to wide-ranging
applications, from small to large-scale.

Control signals can be used in many different ways. One example is the controlling of doors and gates.
Gates can be opened or closed by function keys of the master stations.
Background music is very important for many applications. Several types of audio sources can be
connected to the Multi-Interface Unit and then, it is possible to broadcast the music through stations or
connected amplifiers and speakers.
Paging can be done by pushing the paging button of the master stations. Up to 160 different paging zones
can be defined in a system. A paging zone can be one amplifier with its connected speakers.
N-8000MI
Multi-Interface Unit
The N-8000MI provides the possibility to connect telephone systems. Each Multi-Interface Unit can send
