Chapter 3 Setting Up the Cisco Unified IP Phone
Installing the Cisco Unified IP Phone
•
Move the external device away from the source of the RF or AF signals.
•
Route the external device cables away from the source of the RF or AF
signals.
•
Use shielded cables for the external device, or use cables with a better shield
and connector.
•
Shorten the length of the external device cable.
•
Apply ferrites or other such devices on the cables for the external device.
Cisco cannot guarantee the performance of the system because Cisco has no
control over the quality of external devices, cables, and connectors. The system
will perform adequately when suitable devices are attached using good quality
cables and connectors.
Caution
In European Union countries, use only external headsets that are fully compliant
with the EMC Directive [89/336/EC].
