Providing Power to the Phone

Providing Power to the Phone
Cisco Unified IP Phone 7975G, 7971G-GE, 7970G, 7965G, and 7945G 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.
When you install a phone that is powered with external power, connect the power supply to the phone
Note
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.
The following sections provide more information about powering a phone:
