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-812 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 page port or

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-812 is designed for wall, table or rack

mounting.

Table: Provided with the VIP-812 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-812 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-812 unit.

Using rack screws, mount the VIP-812 in an

available 1U rack slot. See Figure 1.

Power Connections

The preferred method of powering a VIP-812 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-812 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 in to the VIP-812 via

the barrel connector on the rear of the VIP-812.
