Mounting the Phone to the Wall
You can mount the Cisco Unified IP Phone on the wall by removing the footstand
and using the mounting bracket on the back of the phone, 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 the 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
To mount the phone on the wall using its mounting bracket, follow these steps.
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 Universal
Wall Mount Kit for the Cisco Unified IP Phone.
Procedure
Step 1 Remove the footstand from the phone.
Step 2 Modify the handset rest so that the handset remains on the ear-piece rest when the
phone is vertically placed.
a. Remove the handset from the ear-piece rest.
b. Locate the tab (handset wall hook) at the base of the ear-piece rest.
c. Slide this tab out, rotate it 180 degrees (left to right), and reinsert it.
d. Place the handset on the ear-piece rest.
Step 3 Insert two screws into a wall stud, matching them to the two screw holes on the
back of the phone.
The keyholes fit standard phone jack mounts.
Step 4 Hang the phone on the wall.
