Chapter 3 Setting Up the Cisco Unified IP Phone
Understanding the Cisco Unified IP Phone 6901 and 6911 Components
Each port supports 10/100 Mbps half- or full-duplex connections to external devices. You can use either Category 3/5/5e cabling for 10-Mbps connections, but you must use Category 5/5e for 100 Mbps connections.
Use the network port to connect the phone to the network. You must use a straight-through cable on this port. The phone can also obtain inline power from a switch over this connection. See the “Adding Phones to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Database” section on page 2-7for details.
Use the PC access port to connect a network device, such as a computer, to the phone. You must use a straight-through cable on this port.
Handset
The handset is designed especially for use with a Cisco Unified IP Phone. It includes a light strip that indicates incoming calls and voice messages waiting.
To connect a handset to the Cisco Unified IP Phone, plug the cable into the handset and the Handset port on the back of the phone.
Speakerphone (Cisco Unified IP Phone 6911 Only)
By default, the speakerphone is enabled on the Cisco Unified IP Phone.
You can disable the speakerphone by using Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration. To do so, choose Device > Phone and locate the phone you want to modify. In the Phone Configuration window for the phone, check the Disable Speakerphone check box.
