Unpacking and Inspection
Do not unpack the Cisco VG450 until you are ready to install it. If the installation site is not ready, keep the
chassis in its shipping container to prevent accidental damage.
The Cisco VG450, cables, printed publications, and any optional equipment you ordered might be shipped in
more than one container. When you unpack each shipping container, check the packing list to ensure that you
received all the following items:
• Cisco VG450 Voice Gateway
• Power cord, 6-foot (1.8-meter)
• RJ-45-to-DB-25 adapter cable (labeled Console)
• RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter cable (labeled Auxiliary)
• Rack-mounting brackets for 19-inch rack (one pair) with screws for attaching to chassis
• Chassis guard for wall-mounting applications
• Grounding lug and fasteners
Inspect all items for shipping damage. If anything appears damaged, or if you encounter problems when
installing or configuring your system, contact a customer service representative.
