The PA-250-IP high-powered paging amplifier from Viking Electronics (Hudson, WI) adds loud ringing, voice paging, and background music to a VoIP SIP hosted phone service or a premise-based PBX.

The PA-250-IP is a 250-Watt rack-mounted paging amplifier for 25V and 70V paging speakers and horns. Users may initiate voice paging with the PA-250-IP as a unicast end point, or add the PA-250-IP to a paging group for multicast paging.

Additional inputs on the PA-250-IP allow for: a contact closure to activate a door chime tone; a 1/8-inch audio jack for background music which mutes during a voice page; and a 600 Ohm AUX input for line level audio sources providing mass notifications, pre-recorded messages, or scheduled tones.

Further, the PA-250-IP features: individual level controls with LED indicators for each input; automatic peak limiting; multiple amplifier protection modes; an adjustable Automatic Level Control; and Bass and Treble controls. For more power/speakers, multiple units can be daisy chained together using the unit's 600 Ohm output.

“Building on the success of our IP paging line, this high-powered IP paging amplifier is unique in it’s usability and efficiency,” comments Paul Speltz, engineer, Viking Electronics.
