10 OL-10776-01

Warning

Read the installation instructions before you connect the system to its power source.

Warning

Ultimate disposal of this product should be handled according to all national laws and

regulations.

Warning

Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning

activity.

Cisco Unified IP Phone 7970 Series for Cisco Unified CallManager 4.2(3) 11

Warning

To avoid electric shock, do not connect safety extra low voltage (SELV) circuits to

telephone network voltage (TNV) circuits. LAN ports contain SELV circuits, and WAN

ports contain TNV circuits. Some LAN and WAN ports use RJ-45 connectors. Use caution

when connecting cables.

Caution Inline power circuits provide current through the communication cable. Use the Cisco

provided cable or a minimum 24 AWG communication cable.

Using an External Power Supply

The following warnings apply when you use the external power supply with the

Cisco Unified IP Phone:

Warning

This product relies on the building's installation for short-circuit (over current)

protection. Ensure that a fuse or circuit breaker no larger than 120 VAC, 15A U.S. (240 VAC,

10A international) is used on the phase conductors (all current-carrying conductors).

Warning

The device is designed to work with TN power systems.

Warning

The plug-socket combination must be accessible at all times because it serves as the

main disconnecting device.

Warning

The power supply must be placed indoors.

Caution Only use the Cisco specified power supply with this product.

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.

12 OL-10776-01

Using External Devices

The following information applies when you use external devices with the Cisco Unified IP Phone:

Cisco recommends the use of good quality external devices (such as headsets) that are shielded against

unwanted radio frequency (RF) and audio frequency (AF) signals.

Depending on the quality of these devices and their proximity to other devices such as mobile phones

or two-way radios, some audio noise may still occur. In these cases, Cisco recommends that you take

one or more of the following actions:

• Move the external device away from the source of the RF or AF signals.

• Route the external device cables away from the source of the RF or AF signals.

• Use shielded cables for the external device, or use cables with a better shield and connector.

• Shorten the length of the external device cable.

• Apply ferrites or other such devices on the cables for the external device.

Cisco cannot guarantee the performance of the system because Cisco has no control over the quality

of external devices, cables, and connectors. The system will perform adequately when suitable devices

are attached using good quality cables and connectors.

Caution In European Union countries, use only external speakers, microphones, and headsets that

are fully compliant with the EMC Directive [89/336/EC].
