8001 IP Alerter

Introduction and Overview

The 8001 IP Alerter is an add-on device
that allows external visual or audible
alerters (purchased separately) to be used
with Nortel’s IP 2002 and 2004
telephones with a Communication Server
1000 (CS 1000).

By connecting to the back of the
telephone, the IP Alerter is able to decode
information to provide two relay outputs –
one for Ring and one for In-Use. Each
relay output is compatible with Algo’s
1825 Duet Plus Loud Ringer, 1127 Visual
Alerter, or 1126 Strobe Light.

Typical applications include ring
notification in noisy or noise-sensitive
environments such as factories,
warehouses, hospital nurseries and
recording studios. Other applications
include use in emergency service
environments where telephone answering
and quick response are critical (e.g. fire,
ambulance, and police).

How it works By connecting to the telephone’s Key

Expansion Module (KEM) port, the IP
Alerter is able to decode information to
provide two relay outputs – one for Ring
and one for In-Use. These outputs are
