INSTALLATION

NOTE: The telephone system referred to in this

manual is the customer premise equipment

such as an electronic key system, a PBX or a

dedicated single line telephone sets. The

VIP-822A is not intended for direct or indirect

connection to the public telephone network.

When used with a customer premise telephone

system such as a key system or PBX system,

these units are interfaced to the system via a

fully protected system central office port,

which is a fully protected interface device.

Also, the host system must be configured to

disallow central office trunk conferencing in

order to prevent indirect connection to the

public network.

Precautionary Designations

FCC Information

This equipment has been tested and found to

comply with the limits for a Class A digital

device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.

These limits are designed to provide

reasonable protection against harmful

interference when the equipment is operated in

a commercial environment. This equipment

generates, uses and can radiate radio

frequency energy and if not installed and used

in accordance with the instruction manual, may

cause harmful interference to radio

communications. Operation of this equipment

in a residential area may cause harmful

interference in which case the user will be

required to correct the interference at his own

expense.

Mounting

The VIP-822A is designed for wall, table or rack

mounting.

Table: Provided with the VIP-822A are four rubber

pads. Peel pads from their carrier backing and

place at the four corners of the bottom of the unit.

Wall: Using the template on last page of this

document, mark the location of the bracket screw

holes on the wall. Drill 5/64" pilot holes, 3/4" deep,

at each screw location and use the wood screws

provided to attach the brackets to the wall. For

surfaces other than wood, use hardware

appropriate for the surface (not included). With the

brackets securely attached to the wall, attach the

VIP-822A to the brackets using the included

hardware. Figure 2 illustrates the bracket

assembly.

Rack: Following the assembly drawing, attach the

two mounting brackets to the VIP-822A unit. Using

rack screws, mount the VIP-822A in an available

1U rack slot. See Figure 1.

Power Connections

The preferred method of powering a VIP-822A is

via a Power over Ethernet (PoE) 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. If powering via 802.3af,

make sure all signal connections via the back

panel are made then connect the VIP-822A to the

Ethernet switch.

If power is supplied via the barrel connector, make

sure all signal connections are secure. Attach the

unit to the network via the front panel RJ-45

Ethernet connector. Apply power by plugging the

power supply into the VIP-822A via the barrel

connector on the rear of the VIP-822A.

Network Connection

The VIP-822A has one RJ-45 network connector

on the front panel.

Use a standard Ethernet patch cable to connect

the VIP-822A to an Ethernet switch. If the Ethernet

switch is 802.3af compliant, the VIP-822A will draw

power from it.

Signal Connections

Trunk Connections:

Connect a standard analog FXS circuit to the

VIP-822A via the rear panel RJ-11 jacks labeled

Port 1 Line or Port 2 Line. Tip and Ring appear on

pins 3 and 4 of this jack.

Failover Telephone Connections:

Connect a standard analog telephone to the

VIP-822A via the rear panel RJ-11 jacks labeled

Port 1 Phone or Port 2 Phone. Tip and Ring

appear on pins 3 and 4 of this jack. These

connections are only active when the VIP-822A is

powered off.
