Chapter 2 Preparing to Install the Cisco Unified IP Phone on Your Network

Providing Power to the Phone

Power Outage

Your accessibility to emergency service through the phone is dependent on the
phone being powered. If there is an interruption in the power supply, Service and
Emergency Calling Service dialing will not function until power is restored. In the
case of a power failure or disruption, you may need to reset or reconfigure
equipment before using the Service or Emergency Calling Service dialing.

Power Guidelines

Table 2-1

provides guidelines that apply to external power and to PoE power for

the Cisco Unified IP Phones 7931G.

Guidelines

External power—
Provided through a Cisco
external power supply.

The CP-PWR-CUBE-3 external power supply may be used with the
Cisco Unified IP Phones 7931G.

External power—
Provided through the
Cisco Unified IP Phone
Power Injector.

The Cisco Unified IP Phone Power Injector may be used with any
Cisco Unified IP Phone. Functioning as a midspan device, the injector
delivers inline power to the attached phone. The Cisco Unified IP Phone
Power Injector is connected between a switch port and the IP Phone, and
supports a maximum cable length of 100m between the unpowered switch
and the phone.

PoE power—Provided by
a switch through the
Ethernet cable attached to
the phone.

The Cisco Unified IP Phones 7931G supports IEEE 802.3af Power
over Ethernet.

To ensure uninterruptible operation of the phone, make sure that the
switch has a backup power supply.

Make sure that the CatOS or IOS version running on your switch
supports your intended phone deployment. Refer to the documentation
for your switch for operating system version information.
