Seamless IP Interface to Analog PA Systems
The 8373 IP paging adapter emulates a page port, similar to what is found on a legacy PBX or key system. The adapter connects directly to a traditional analog amplifier, thereby offering a simple and easy interface to a VoIP phone system as a SIP extension and multicast endpoint.
Wideband G.722 HD voice codec is supported in the 8373. Consequently, there is high intelligibility and clarity of audio from the paging adapter for IP paging of voice announcements and emergency notification. The isolated and balanced line output of the 8373 ensures there is no hum or noise.
Algo 8373 IP Zone Paging Adapter - back view
The line output one the paging adapter provides a dry audio output for any amplifier with input impedance between 600 Ohm and 10 kOhm, where the line output of the paging adapter can be defined to match the input specification of the amplifier. This means most amplifiers are supported by the 8373. Either XLR connector or terminal block is available from the paging for easy connection to an amplifier. A dry contact closure to activate the amplifier is also available, if required.
Zone Controller
The 8373 has three (3) separate speaker zones using high current internal zone control relays. The zone control relays are activated based on the SIP extension called, multicast IP address received, or telephone DTMF keypad input. For scalability, multiple 8373 Paging Adapters can be used to support as many page zones as required from a single amplifier. Please note, however, one 8373 adapter can switch up to 500W from a single 70V amplifier or 720W on a single 100V amplifier.
No ATA Required
For amplifiers connected to an FXS port or ATA through a 'telephone answering device', the 8373 IP paging adapter will replace the answering device and eliminate the need for an FXS port or analog terminal adapter (ATA).
The 8373 paging adapter is only recommended to connect to a single zoned amplifier. If the amplifier is not zoned and is only being used as a single zone the 8301 paging adapter is recommended.
Where multiple amplifiers are used, one paging adapter is bridged to each amplifier. Multicast can be configured to stream audio to individual page zones or to any combination as required (e.g., all call page zone).

SIP Extensions for Voice Paging
Fifty (50) Page extension SIP registrations are available in the 8373 adapter. When the Page extension is called the 8373 will auto-answer allowing for public address (PA) voice announcements from the telephone. For user convenience, an extension can be mapped to each of the zone outputs on the paging adapter, allowing for immediate voice paging to the desired zone. Alternatively, zones may be selected using a DTMF option from the telephone keypad by calling a single Page extension.
