Cisco Unified IP Phone 7906G and 7911G for Cisco Unified Communications Manager 6.1
OL-14585-01
You can mount the Cisco Unified IP Phone on a wall by using the back of the
phone as a mounting bracket or you can use special brackets available in a
Cisco Unified IP Phone wall mount kit. (Wall mount kits must be ordered
separately from the phones.) If you attach the phone to a wall by using the back
of the phone and not the wall mount kit, you need to supply the following tools
and parts:
Screwdriver
•
Screws to secure the Cisco Unified IP phone to the wall
•
Before You Begin
To ensure that the handset attaches securely to a wall-mounted phone, remove the
handset wall hook from the handset rest, rotate the hook 180 degrees, and reinsert
the hook. Turning the hook exposes a lip on which the handset catches when the
phone is vertical. For an illustrated procedure, refer to the Installing the Universal
Wall Mount Kit for the Cisco Unified IP Phone document at:

Use care not to damage wires or pipes located inside the wall when securing
screws to wall studs.
Procedure
Remove the footstand if it is attached to the phone.
Insert two screws into a wall stud, matching them to the two screw holes on the
back of the phone.
Hang the phone on the wall.
