Connecting a Phone

To connect an 802.3af-compliant phone to an Ethernet switch port, follow these steps:

Note A power source must be provided for the phone to function. This can be done in two ways: the phone can be powered via the PoE function using the PoE enabled Ethernet ports, or by using an external AC power source connected to the phone.

Step 1 Connect one end of the yellow Ethernet cable to Ethernet switch port 0 or port 1 on the router. Figure 3-2shows a Cisco 888W router connected to a phone.
