Overview

Overview of Algo 8301 IP Paging Adapter & Scheduler | New

The Algo 8301 IP Paging Adapter & Scheduler is a high-performance, PoE-powered SIP bridge that connects older speakers and amplifiers with VoIP settings in a smooth manner, modernizing analog public address systems. With direct SIP extension and multicast zone compatibility, the 8301 rapidly improves your facility's paging, scheduled notification and emergency alerting. It is designed for schools, hospitals, retail and enterprises. Wideband HD speech guarantees that every announcement is as clear as possible and its integrated scheduler uses a web-based calendar to automate bell tones, announcements and other events. This adapter is the clever option for combining speech and event notification across analog and IP endpoints since it has secure provisioning, NTP synchronization and line-level output for hum-free operation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Algo 8301 IP Paging Adapter & Scheduler
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)



What is the primary function of the Algo 8301?
  • The 8301 acts as a SIP paging adapter and scheduler — it registers with your VoIP system like a phone extension and outputs paging audio to your legacy amplifier while also supporting scheduled audio events like bells or announcements.
    • Can it integrate with existing analog PA systems?
  • Yes — it’s designed to output a balanced, isolated line‑level signal to analog amplifiers (input impedance 600 Ω–10 kΩ) so you can retain your current speakers and amplifier infrastructure.
    • Does it support zone paging or multicast paging?
  • Yes — it supports RTP multicast send and receive, with up to 50 zones configured. This allows you to broadcast to IP speakers, paging adapters and analog amplifiers simultaneously from one device.
    • How does the scheduling feature work?
  • The device includes a calendar scheduler synced via NTP server. You can upload audio files (WAV/MP3) and schedule them to play on line output, multicast or both at predefined times (e.g., bells, alerts, shift changes).
    • What kind of power does it require?
  • It is powered via PoE (IEEE 802.3af Class 0), drawing approximately 12.9 W max at 48 V. No external power adapter is needed if your switch supports PoE.
    • What audio quality and codecs are supported?
  • The 8301 supports wideband G.722 as well as G.711 µ‑law and A‑law, ensuring high clarity voice paging especially in challenging acoustic environments.
    • Can it play music as well as voice paging?
  • Yes — it has an auxiliary music input (3.5 mm jack) and when music is playing, a paging call or scheduled event will interrupt and then music resumes afterward.
    • Does it support emergency alerting?
  • Yes — you can configure up to 10 “Emergency Alert” SIP extensions. When triggered, the device plays configured audio files or tones and remains active until cancelled.
    • Is it compatible with major VoIP/UC systems?
  • Yes — it functions as a generic SIP endpoint with support for TLS/SRTP and mutual authentication, and is used widely in UC deployments including Microsoft Teams via SIP gateway.
    • How is it configured and managed?
  • Configuration is via built‑in web interface or auto‑provisioning (TFTP/FTP/HTTP/HTTPS). For large deployments you can also use Algo’s Device Management Platform (ADMP) for centralized monitoring.
    • What happens if I want to stream to both analog and IP speakers?
  • The 8301 supports simultaneous analog (line out) and IP (multicast) output. A single call or schedule can address legacy amplifier plus IP endpoints.
    • Do I need multiple devices for different zones?
  • Not necessarily — the device supports 50 zones via multicast and/or DTMF zone selection. Additional devices may be used for very large installations, but one 8301 can cover many zones.
    • Will the device eliminate hum or noise when connected to analog systems?
  • Yes — its isolated and balanced line output is designed to eliminate ground‑loop hum and noise, delivering clean signal to amplifiers.
    • What kind of environments is it suitable for?
  • Typical applications include educational‑campus bells, healthcare paging systems, retail store announcements, transportation hubs, manufacturing floor alerts — anywhere legacy analog and IP systems must coexist.
    • Is background music automatically paused when a page is called?
  • Yes — when a PAGING or SCHEDULE event occurs, the 8301 interrupts the music input and plays the announcement or tone, then resumes music once the event completes.
    • Does it have external trigger inputs/outputs?
  • Yes — it includes a dry contact‑closure input (normally open/closed) and relay outputs, allowing external devices (call‑buttons, switches) to activate paging or triggers.
    • What are the physical dimensions and mounting options?
  • Dimensions are approx. 6.75″ × 4.3″ × 1.18″ (17.2 cm × 10.9 cm × 3.0 cm). Wall‑mount brackets are included.
    • Does it support IPv6 and what network features are included?
  • Yes — the 8301 supports IPv4/IPv6, DHCP, VLAN tagging, LLDP/CDP, DNS/SRV, NTP time sync and QoS (DSCP) support.
    • How is the line output configured for different amplifiers?
  • Through the web interface you can set the line‑out output level and input impedance settings so you can match the device to amplifiers of different specs (600 Ω–10 kΩ) and minimize noise.
