Our company transitioned from another vendor to a Polycom-based VoIP system a few years ago.  We already had a BOGEN Universal Telephone Interface (UTI) module with paging capability which connects to our warehouse speaker system.  All we needed was a Cisco SPA112 ATA phone adapter to interface with the existing module.  The adapter was set to extension '7423' (which spells "PAGE"), so anyone in the building can dial the extension on any phone and send a page over the speakers.

This is marked as solved though there is no place in this thread that had an answer or solution. I have the same problem. I have Polycom in 13 of my stores and every time we convert to your VOIP phones we lose the ability to page overhead. It's like going back 30 years. Instead of paging people we are getting up from our desks and to walk out into the warehouse or storefront to contact people. Everytime I call your support they act like they don't even know what overhead paging is! I am wondering what I have to do to solve this simple issue. I would think there would be a unit that connected to the internet with output to RCA, 1/8, or bare wire. But I can't find anyone who knows.

Hello @MBrandon ,

 

Welcome to the Poly Community.

Both the communities Must Read First or Read 1st and if available the FAQ reference the basic minimum information a new or follow up post should contain.

This ensures the questions having to be asked are limited and any new or follow up post contains the right amount of details to ensure any voluntary participant within the community does not spend additional time chasing basic information.


Unfortunately, your post fell a bit short of the above-explained requirements and we kindly ask you, therefore, to ensure to read these sections and ensure a reply (not Edit!) provides as much detail as possible


Please ensure you familiarise yourself with the FAQs listed in my signature for your convenience.

 

The original poster was made aware back in 2016 what different methods that can be used. There is no hardware that is manufactured by Poly that has a simpe RCA output. We produces VoIP phones that have different functionalities.

 

We do support paging PTT and a FAQ search finds this:

 

Jan 21, 2014 Question: How can I use PTT / Push To Talk / Paging / Page ?

Resolution: Please check => here <=

 

3rd party hardware is compatible with this should the built in functionality not be satisfactoy for the use case.

 

We also support Auto Answer should the SIP switch used support this.

 

As you did not provide sufficient information in your post we can only recommend you work with who installed the solution.


Please ensure to provide some feedback if this reply has helped you so other users can profit from your experience.

Best Regards

Steffen Baier
