Hello, new to the forum. We currently have a Valcom V-2006A paging system hooked up to Cisco Unity/Subscriber/Publisher going through a Cisco 2811. We are moving over to a VOIP phone system by CudaTel. We have purchased a Cisco SPA-3102 to connect from the CudaTel to the Valcom using the FXS port.

I'm not sure if anyone on the board has worked with the CudaTel system before and tried interfacing with a similar paging system. The CudaTel sees the FXS port as a provider port and requires a line number. As far as I can tell the RJ11 goes directly from the patch panel to the Valcom and would not have a phone number associated to it.

I am not versed in the warranty Valcom provides for their products so along with posting here I have also sent Valcom support an email describing the situation. I am also actively working with CudaTel support to figure this out.

Any help or suggestions provided would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Although your question has been answered by our support team, I wanted to post the reply on this board.....

There are a couple of possible scenarios:

If an FXO port is available on the SPA-3102, the V-2006A will connect directly to this port. Ensure the battery feed switch (SW6) is in the ON position.

If an FXO port is not available and an FXS or ATA port is utilized, a V-9970 (Station Level Page Adapter) would would be required between the FXS or ATA port and the V-2006A. The V-9970 will answer the incoming call between the first and second ring, then provide a line level output and close an associated relay that will trigger the V-2006A. In this scenario, the battery feed switch (SW6) would need to be in the OFF position.

To test the V-2006A, plug an analog phone into J4 or connect a buttset to the w/bl pair on the block. When off-hook, an intercom dial tone should be heard. From there, enter a desired zone (1-6) or All Call code (0) and page.
