Revised: 11/07/2009, OL-12847-01

This document describes how to connect Cisco voice interface cards to your network. It contains the

following sections:

•

Grounding Requirements for Voice Interface Cards

This section tells where to find instructions on how to properly ground voice interface cards on the

following platforms:

•

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

Warning

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

Warning

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

LAN and WAN ports both use RJ-45 connectors. Use caution when connecting cables.
