The following information is for FCC compliance of Class A devices: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15

of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment

generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.

Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case users will be required to correct the interference at their own expense.

The following information is for FCC compliance of Class B devices: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of

the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio

frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference

will not occur in a particular installation. If the equipment causes interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, users are

encouraged to try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

The Cisco IP Conference Phone 7832

The phone has sensitive microphones with 360-degree coverage. This coverage lets users speak in a normal

voice and be heard clearly from up to 7 feet (2.1 m) away. The phone also features technology that resists

interference from mobile phones and other wireless devices, assuring delivery of clear communications without

distractions.

Like other devices, a Cisco IP Phone must be configured and managed. These phones encode and decode the

following codecs:

• G.711 a-law

• G.711 mu-law

• G.722

• G722.2 AMR-WB

Cisco IP Conference Phone 7832 Multiplatform Phones Administration Guide for Release 11.3(1) and Later

• G.729a/G.729ab

• G.726

• iLBC

• Opus

• iSAC

Using a cell, mobile, or GSM phone, or two-way radio in close proximity to a Cisco IP Phone might cause

interference. For more information, see the manufacturer’s documentation of the interfering device.

Caution

Cisco IP Phones provide traditional telephony functionality, such as call forwarding and transferring, redialing,

speed dialing, conference calling, and voice messaging system access. Cisco IP Phones also provide a variety

of other features.

Finally, because the Cisco IP Phone is a network device, you can obtain detailed status information from it

directly. This information can assist you with troubleshooting any problems users might encounter when using

their IP phones. You can also obtain statistics about an active call or firmware versions on the phone.
