Algo’s 8305 Multi-Interface IP Paging Adapter is a SIP-compliant, PoE device that enables you to integrate legacy communication systems and IP devices. Designed specifically to emulate an analog phone, the 8305 enables you to create a hybrid VoIP environment by continuing to use existing analog hardware connected to a telephone port, 8 output, or line output while gaining the benefits of connecting to unified communication (UC), collaboration, and mass communication platforms.

What is Included

The following items are included with the 8305 Multi-Interface IP Paging:

8305 Multi-Interface IP Paging Adapter
Wall mount bracket and screws
Network cable
Telephone cable
Two (2) pluggable terminal blocks
Flat head screwdriver
Getting Started Sheet

HARDWARE SETUP & INSTALLATION

Mounting Instructions
Use the supplied bracket to mount the 8305 horizontally. Example installation on 1/2″ drywall:

Use appropriate drywall anchors for #8 screws and pre-drill per anchor manufacturer’s instructions.
Insert 4 anchors into the wall, and then attach the bracket to the wall anchors using #8 screws.
Snap the 8305 into the bracket.

Wiring Connections

Connect the 8305 Multi-Interface IP Paging Adapter to an IEEE 802.3af compliant PoE network switch or PoE injector. Blue lights on the front will turn on.
Wait for the blue lights to turn off (about 60 seconds). Boot-up is complete when they turn off.
Press the recessed reset switch (RST) to play the IP address over the analog outputs or via a headset connected to the green AUX output port. You will need this IP address to configure the 8305 using the web interface.
You can also find the IP address by downloading the Algo Network Device Locator or a third-party network scanner to find Algo devices on your network. Algo device MAC addresses start with 00:22:ee.
Connect your desired devices to the telephone port, line output, or 8 output.
a. Telephone Port  This port on the 8305 emulates an analog telephone. Connect to the telephone port on an analog amplifier (may be labeled as an FXS port).
b. Line Output  Connect directly to the Line Input on an amplifier with an input impedance between 600 Ohm and 10 kOhm. The output level can be adjusted to match the amplifier’s input volume and other audio specifications in the web interface under Basic Settings Features. If required, the optional dry contact closure can be used to activate the amplifier.
c. 8 Ω Output  Connect one or many self-amplified speakers. If many speakers are connected in parallel, the resulting effective impedance must not be less than 8 Ω. Intended use is for nominal 2 kΩ or 1 kΩ self-amplified speakers.

Web Interface Setup

Enter the IP address into a web browser to access the 8305 Multi-Interface IP Paging Adapter web interface.
Log in using the default password: algo.
Navigate to Basic Settings SIP and enter the IP address or the domain name for the SIP server (provided by your IT team or hosted provider) into SIP Domain (Proxy Server).
Enter the Page and/or Ring credentials Extension, Authentication ID, and Authentication Password (provided by your IT team or hosted provider). If you are not using an extension, leave the fields blank.
Note that some SIP servers may say Username instead of Authentication ID.
Verify the extension is properly registered with the SIP server in the Status tab. Ensure the SIP registration says “Successful”.
Test the adapter by dialing the registered SIP extension from a telephone.
