mitel loudringer 1

[ChrisvanT]

Hello all, (3300, 4.2)

I need to know if Mitel has a loudringer product/phone for a higher noise environment e.g. production to notify users easier?

I currently have a couple analogue (but we dont want it coz its old) and two that work with a ATA device to convert ip to analogue for the ringer (but they also suck and sometimes never stop ringing).

Im looking for a product thats kind of more plug n play and hopefully mitel branded to simplify setting up.

Thanks guys!

I would just tap into the audio of the speaker under the handset. Take the screw loose from back and there is a red and black wire that goes from the circuitboard to the speaker for ringing and paging depending which model. You can either solder or super glue a pair from Cat5...run it out the bottom of the phone through one of the many holes/slots. Then order a Viking auxiliry ringer or get a Valcom 15 watt speaker and power supply...connect audio pair to Tip/Ring of the speaker and you have a LOUD ringer....I mean loud. Pretty simple plus if you page through phones the page will come through. You can use an old IP phone and add multicall to the set of the EXT you want to ring also.

Or if you are looking for a mitel branded solution get a 5485 paging module and connect the output to an amp

Hi Guys, thanks for the ideas,

I have never seen or used a 5485, do you connect it directly to the phone? Will the phone then ring through it too or do you have to make a ring group or so?

@EPearson, the conventional ringers that i have work with RJ11, so if i were to run a pair from the internal speaker of the phone, to which other pair on the ringer should i connect it?

Thanks agian,
Chris

also will the current running through the pair from the phone speaker be enough to power a ringer that doesn't have an external power source?

Thanks

Program it as a single SIp ext in a prg with the phone
program a second sip ext on it and you can use it as a pager

If I never did anything I'd never done before , I'd never do anything.....

We've used a Viking PA2A with great success before. It's basically a page horn. You connect it to your existing analog ports. It's work great for us in loud environments before.

The 5485 is basically an IP phone with the output connected to the speaker wires. It doesn't look like a phone but that's what it is and how it connects.

Current on speaker is plenty especially if you buy a valcom 15 watt...they are self ampified....all you need is a power supply, horn, audio from speaker inside phone...very simple...buy a Valcom V-1030c 5 watt or V-1036c 15 watt and power supply

After weighing up all the options, I had a chat to one of our electrical engineers who said he will connect some sort of relay that will increase the power output from the speaker to the ringer.
The 5485 is going to be too pricey as you need to buy an external ringer anyways, and as mentioned we want to move away from analogue...

So thanks EPearson for the brilliant idea, and lets hope it works!

Thanks again to all for your ideas and suggestions!

Chris
