Group Paging Features
The PagePro IP Model VIP-201 allows SIP
based phone systems to page any number of
Valcom IP speakers, Valcom Amplied
Speakers and Valcom VIP series analog
paging gateways. Valcom multicast group
paging features robust grouping and priority
controls. These controls make it easy to
distribute low priority announcements yet
allow high priority paging to override ongoing
announcements.
Group Paging Features
The PagePro IP Model VIP-201 provides 8
IP zones and 1 analog output capable of
driving a mix of Valcom self amplied
overhead paging speakers and horns. The
VIP-201 provides 8 fully customizable SIP
identities that can access any combination
of IP zones and the analog port. Analog
paging functions can be seamlessly combined
with IP paging functions allowing powerful
combinations of analog and IP paging.
Group Paging Priority Feature
Any page group or port can be assigned a
priority. These priorities allow a logical
scaled approach to group paging. An
absolute priority can be assigned to allow for
emergency override in any circumstance.
Group paging priorities work locally or across
ganged units in the same fashion allowing
facility wide emergency paging. Red Phone
functionality is easily achieved with either IP
phone or analog handsets via a Valcom
gateway.
Feedback Elimination Feature
The PagePro IP Model VIP-201 provides
programmable store and forward capability
for all paging accesses. This features
records up to 30 seconds of audio, and then
replays the audio when the page call is
terminated. The number of times the
recorded audio is played back can be set
from 1 to 4. Some paging applications
require live announcements. For these
applications the store and forward capability
can be turned on/o per page zone.
Night Ring Features
The PagePro IP Model VIP-201 provides Night
Ring functionality on any of the 8 SIP identities.
This feature generates a tone to any paging
groups when the SIP identity is called.
Audio Supervision Features
The PagePro IP Model VIP-201 provides
internal monitoring of the audio path from the
network connection to the analog output
connector and can report failures to an
external device or syslog facility.
Legacy Applications
The PagePro IP Model VIP-201 provides 1
analog output that can easily be conditioned
to drive any existing overhead paging
system. Legacy paging features can be
seamlessly combined allowing powerful
combinations of legacy analog and IP
paging.

Valcom PagePro IP VIP-201 allows paging from any SIP compliant telephone to 8 SIP page destinations. The
SIP page destinations can be the VIP-201's analog output, or any combination of page groups from other
Valcom VIP units. The analog output on the VIP-201 is line level –10dBm audio. This output is designed to
directly drive up to 150 Valcom self-amplified speakers. The output is also suitable for connection to an
auxiliary input on a utility amplifier of a legacy paging system.
