Chapter 2 Preparing to Install the Cisco Unified IP Phone on Your Network
Providing Power to the Phone
Phone Power Consumption and Display Brightness
The power consumed by a phone depends on its power configuration. See Table 2-1 for a power
configuration overview. See Table 2-2 for the maximum power consumed by a phone for each
configuration option and the correlating phone screen brightness level.
Note Power consumption values shown in the table include power losses in the cable that connects the phone
to the switch.
Note When a phone is powered with a method that does not support full brightness for the phone screen, the
phone Brightness control (Settings > User Preferences > Brightness) does not allow you to set the
brightness to the maximum value.
