DRY INDOOR LOCATION ONLY The 8301 Paging Adapter & Scheduler is intended for dry indoor locations only. For outdoor locations Algo offers weatherproof speakers and strobe lights. CAT5 or CAT6 connection wiring to an IEEE 802.3af compliant network PoE switch must not leave the building perimeter without adequate lightning protection.
1GB of memory is available in the device to store WAV files, which can be played via the 8301 Line Out and, if desired, as a multicast to other Algo speakers, paging adapters and strobes. Dual SIP extensions provide both voice paging and notification (ring) capability.
For amplifiers connected to a FXS port or ATA through a “telephone answering device” the 8301 will replace the answering device and eliminate the need for a FXS port or ATA.
