Interface Your Paging System to Telecom or IP Phone Systems with Viking’s New FXI-1A
HUDSON, WI – December 5, 2017 – The FXI-1A smart paging interface enables connectivity of today’s analog and VoIP phone systems to traditional paging amplifiers.
“The FXI-1A provides programmable features to better interface with the wide range of telecom and IP phone system variables,” said Paul Speltz, Senior Engineer, Viking Electronics, Inc.
The FXI-1A interfaces phone systems to paging systems in a variety of ways. Connections include: FXS station ports, FXO trunk ports and VOX paging ports. In addition to voice paging, the FXI-1A supports background music, loud ringing and can enable a pre-page alert tone.
Background music, white noise, sound masking or any other external audio source can be routed through the FXI-1A using the relay contacts. All paging and background audio is delivered from the FXI-1A to the paging amplifier via the 600 Ohm audio output. During an incoming page, the on-board relay will cut the background audio and trigger amplifiers for increased page intelligibility.
Intelligent features on the FXI-1A enhance interoperability with existing paging systems. Automatic disconnect on CPC and busy signal along with programmable silence and page length timers prevent tying up paging amplifiers.
