VOIP-RF-900 Installation Instructions

I.Introduction

Talk-A-Phone's 900Mhz radios are shipped as matched pairs and require no programming or dipswitch adjustments. The output is IP, which requires a Talk-A-Phone VOIP-1(or equivalent) to communicate with a Talk-A-Phone Emergency Phone.

NOTE: The VOIP-RF-900ship as matched pairs that are hard linked. Please do not mix paired units since a mismatched pair will NOT work as expected.

II.Contents

Before beginning installation, make sure you have all the included components. The VOIP-RF-900includes:

2 Radio Modules in outdoor enclosures

2 Power Over Ethernet (PoE) injectors

2 Power supplies (or power cords with battery terminals for solar or battery-powered installations) 2 11dBi antenna

2 Pole Mounting kits

III.Communication Installation

For 120V applications, connect the VOIP-RF-900 as shown in the diagram. For low voltage applications (including solar/battery powered systems), the VOIP-RF-900will accept 6-48VDC using the PoE injector.

IV. Mounting

The radio modules have holes and the antennas include brackets for wall mounting. For mounting on a pole, use the included pole mounting kits and see the separate Pole Mount Directions.

ETP-MT/R OP SOLAR Solar Tower:

When mounting on the mast of a solar tower, make sure the solar panels are mounted as high on the pole as possible to avoid interference with the antenna. Attach the assembled bracket with antenna and radio to the pole. Feed the ethernet cable through the antenna mounting hole. You will need to remove the "C" nut from the fitting to feed the cable assembly through the mast, then re-attach it by slipping the cable through and tightening the nut onto the bottom of the fitting.

ETP-SMWWireless Surface Mount Housing:

When mounting using the ETP-SMW, mount the radio and antenna on the wall or pole above the ETP- SMW. Use the top knockout with a water-tight conduit fitting to ensure a protected environment for the electronics.

ETP-BOX/PCS(or other NEMA 3R housing):

You may use either the conduit holes on the bottom to run the antenna cable out, or, if desired, drill a 1/2" diameter hole to use the included water-tight fitting as described above in the Solar Tower instructions.
