Overview of the Cisco Small Business IP Phones

The Cisco Small Business IP Phones are full-featured VoIP (Voice over Internet

Protocol) phones that provide voice communication over an IP network. The

phones include traditional features, such as call forwarding, redialing, speed

dialing, transferring calls, conference calling, and accessing voice mail. Calls can

be made or received with a handset, headset, or a speaker.

The Cisco Small Business IP phones contain Ethernet ports that link them to the

computer network. They also have secondary Ethernet ports that allow another

Ethernet device, such as a computer, to be connected to the network through the

IP phone.

Cisco Small Business IP phones require a separate power source. You can power

the phones by connecting them to a switch that provides Power over Ethernet

(PoE), or by using the optional a Cisco PA100 power adapter.

Caring for Your Phone

The Cisco Small Business IP phones are electronic devices that should not be

exposed to excessive heat, sun, cold, or water. To clean the equipment, wipe it

with a slightly moistened paper or cloth towel. Do not spray or pour cleaning

solution directly onto the device.
