Warning
Blank faceplates and cover panels serve three important functions: they prevent exposure to
hazardous voltages and currents inside the chassis; they contain electromagnetic interference (EMI)
that might disrupt other equipment; and they direct the flow of cooling air through the chassis. Do not
operate the system unless all cards, faceplates, front covers, and rear covers are in place.

Hardware Requirements
The Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Audio Server system requires a Cisco Unified MeetingPlace 8100
series server.
For a new Release 6.0 system, Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Audio Server software is installed in
manufacturing, so you do not need to install Audio Server software.
Note
The Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Audio Server must be connected to a network switch port that is
configured for auto-negotiate. Cisco Unified MeetingPlace gateways must be connected to network
switch ports that are configured for 100/1000 MB Full Duplex.
