Chapter 2 Preparing to Install the Cisco Unified IP Phone on Your Network
Providing Power to the Phone
You can resolve these issues by isolating the voice traffic onto a separate VLAN. The switch port that
the phone is connected to would be configured to have separate VLANs for carrying:
• Voice traffic to and from the IP phone (auxiliary VLAN, on the Cisco Catalyst 6000 series, for
example)
• Data traffic to and from the PC connected to the switch through the access port of the IP phone
(native VLAN)
Isolating the phones on a separate, auxiliary VLAN improves the quality of the voice traffic and allows
a large number of phones to be added to an existing network where there are not enough IP addresses
for each phone.
For more information, refer to the documentation included with a Cisco switch. You can also access

Providing Power to the Phone
The Cisco Unified IP Phone 7975G can be powered with external power or with Power over Ethernet
(PoE). External power is provided through a separate power supply. PoE is provided by a switch through
the Ethernet cable attached to a phone.
Note When you install a phone that is powered with external power, connect the power supply to the phone
and to a power outlet before you connect the Ethernet cable to the phone. When you remove a phone that
is powered with external power, disconnect the Ethernet cable from the phone before you disconnect the
power supply.
