Mounting
The VIP-812A is designed for wall, table or rack
mounting.
Table: Provided with the VIP-812A 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-812A 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-812A unit.
Using rack screws, mount the VIP-812A in an
available 1U rack slot. See Figure 1.

Power Connections
The preferred method of powering a VIP-812A 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-812A
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-812A via
the barrel connector on the rear of the VIP-812A.
