Viking Electronics E-1600-50-IPEWP VoIP Emergency Phone Parts Kit with Enhanced Weather Protection

Overview

The E-1600-50-IPEWP is a factory-replacement parts kit for Viking's E-1600-IP series VoIP emergency phones, built specifically for the Enhanced Weather Protection (EWP) variant. It includes a circuit board, button, speaker, and wire harness — the core serviceable components that fail or degrade in harsh outdoor installations. Rather than replacing an entire phone enclosure, installers can restore full function by swapping this kit, keeping the existing housing in place. The EWP-rated wire harness uses gel-filled butt connectors on the three field connections, which displace moisture and prevent corrosion at terminations — the detail that separates a reliable outdoor splice from one that fails in six months. PoE Class 1 draw (<4 W) keeps the replacement unit compatible with the same 802.3af switch port powering the original.

Compatibility

Designed for the Viking Electronics E-1600-IP series VoIP emergency phones — specifically the EWP (Enhanced Weather Protection) configuration. This kit is not interchangeable with the standard (non-EWP) E-1600-50-IP kit; the EWP wire harness and humidity rating differ. Confirm your installed unit carries the EWP designation before ordering. Network interface is 100BASE-TX via a single RJ45 port, compatible with any SIP 2.0 (RFC 3261) call server or PBX. The circuit board is FCC Part 15, Canada ICES-003 Class A, and CE compliant — relevant if your site requires documented regulatory conformance on replacement components.

Installation Notes

The three field wire connections terminate with gel-filled butt connectors — no additional weatherproofing compound is required at those junctions. The RJ45 connection is a single 10/100 Base-T port; use a shielded cable run in high-EMI environments. Operating range is -40°F to 140°F (-40°C to 60°C) with humidity tolerance up to 100% (non-condensing limits do not apply to EWP units). IP66 ingress protection on the assembly means sustained rain and dust exposure won't compromise the electronics, but the kit must be installed within a properly rated enclosure to maintain that rating. Board dimensions are 3.58″ × 2.71″ × 0.8″ — verify clearance before installation if the housing has been modified.
