Adjusting the Placement of the Cisco Unified IP Phone

The Cisco Unified IP Phone includes an adjustable footstand. When placing the phone on a desktop surface, you can adjust the tilt height to several different angles in 7.5 degree increments from flat to 60 degrees. You can also mount these phones to the wall using the footstand or using the optional locking wall mount kit.

Adjusting Cisco Unified IP Phone Footstand and Phone Height

You can adjust the footstand adjustment plate on the Cisco Unified IP Phone to the height that provides optimum viewing of the phone screen. See Figure 3-2for more information.

Procedure

Step 1 Push in the footstand adjustment button.

Step 2 Adjust the footstand to desired height.

Mounting the Phone to the Wall

You can mount the Cisco Unified IP Phone on the wall using the footstand as a mounting bracket or you can use special brackets available in a Cisco Unified IP Phone wall mount kit. (Wall mount kits must be ordered separately from the phone.) If you attach the Cisco Unified IP Phone to a wall using the standard footstand and not the wall mount kit, you need to supply the following tools and parts:

•Screwdriver

•Screws to secure the Cisco Unified IP phone to the wall See Figure 3-2for a graphical overview of the phone parts.

Before You Begin

To ensure that the handset attaches securely to a wall-mounted phone, remove the handset wall hook from the handset rest, rotate the hook 180 degrees, and reinsert the hook. Turning the hook exposes a lip on which the handset catches when the phone is vertical. For an illustrated procedure, refer to Installing the Wall Mount Kit for the Cisco Unified IP Phone.

Caution Use care not to damage wires or pipes located inside the wall when securing screws to wall studs.

Procedure

Step 1 Push in the footstand adjustment button.

Step 2 Adjust the footstand so it is flat against the back of the phone.
