Chapter 2 Preparing to Install the Cisco Unified IP Phone on Your Network
Providing Power to the Phone
•Data traffic to and from the PC connected to the switch through the access port of the IP phone (native VLAN)
Isolating the phones on a separate, auxiliary VLAN improves the quality of the voice traffic and allows a large number of phones to be added to an existing network where there are not enough IP addresses for each phone.
For more information, refer to the documentation included with a Cisco switch. You can also access related documentation at this URL:

Power Outage
Your accessibility to emergency service through the phone is dependent on the phone being powered. If there is an interruption in the power supply, Service and Emergency Calling Service dialing will not function until power is restored. In the case of a power failure or disruption, you may need to reset or reconfigure equipment before using the Service or Emergency Calling Service dialing.
