Connecting to the Network

The Cisco MGCP IP phone has two RJ-45 ports that each support 10/100 Mbps half- or full-duplex
Ethernet connections to external devices—network port (labeled 10/100 SW) and access port (labeled
10/100 PC). You can use either Category 3 or 5 cabling for 10 Mpbs connections, but use Category 5 for
100 Mbps connections. On both the network port and access port, use full-duplex mode to avoid
collisions.
Network Port (10/100 SW)
Use the network port to connect the phone to the network. You must use a straight-through cable on this
port. The phone can also obtain inline power from the Cisco Catalyst switch over this connection. See
