Guidelines
Power Type
•
The Cisco Unified SIP Phone 3905 supports IEEE 802.3af Class 1 power
on signal pairs and spare pairs.
•
To ensure uninterruptible operation of the phone, make sure that the
switch has a backup power supply.
•
Make sure that the CatOS or IOS version running on your switch supports
your intended phone deployment. Refer to the documentation for your
switch for operating system version information.
PoE power: Provided by a
switch through the Ethernet
cable attached to the phone.
The inline power patch panel WS-PWR-PANEL is compatible with the Cisco
Unified SIP Phone 3905.
External power: Provided
through inline power patch
panel WS-PWR-PANEL
Power Outage
Your access to emergency service through the phone requires the phone to receive power. If an interruption
in the power supply occurs, Service and Emergency Calling Service dialing do not function until power is
restored. In the case of a power failure or disruption, you may need to reset or reconfigure equipment before
you can use the Service or Emergency Calling Service dialing.
