Reconnect Your Cisco 79 Series IP Phone

Tags staff faculty

Should you need to reconnect your Cisco IP phone — perhaps you have moved to a new office — follow these guidelines. Your Cisco IP Phone works in conjunction with your computer and can be plugged into both a network port and your TU-owned computer. If there is no computer, plug the phone into a network data port directly. The diagram below identifies the connections on your Cisco IP Phone; all connections are on the back of the phone, at the bottom.

 

1 Auxiliary Port (First connector from the left) - Used for additional hardware accessories.
2 DC Adapter Port (Below the auxiliary port) – Not used at Towson.
3 Network Port (Second connector from the left) – Connect the network cable from the wall port here.
4 Access Port  (Third connector from the left) – Connect the network cable from the computer here.
5 Handset Connection  (Fourth connector from the left) – Connect the cord leading to the handset.
6 Analog Headset Connection (Above the handset connection) – Used to connect optional headset jack.
