Description
Stop running wires or guessing when a relay needs to fire. The Valcom VIP-848A puts eight programmable relays and eight contact inputs right on your IP network so you can trigger alerts, unlock doors, activate horns, or monitor sensors from anywhere in your building – or across multiple sites. It’s the simple, powerful way to add smart control to any Valcom IP paging or notification system without extra servers for basic jobs.
Expert Take: If you already run Valcom IP speakers or paging, the VIP-848A is a no-brainer add-on. Pro tip: Use the 1- to 11-digit dial plans when pairing with a Valcom console – you can trigger specific relays with a simple page code. It saves hours of custom programming on every job.
