Install a Phone with the Wall Mount Kit
The wall mount kit can be mounted on most surfaces, including concrete, brick, and similar hard surfaces.
To mount the kit on concrete, brick, or similar hard surfaces, you must provide the appropriate screws and
anchors for your wall surface.
Before You Begin
You need these tools:
• #2 Phillips-head screwdriver
• Level
• Pencil
You must also install an Ethernet jack for the phone in the desired location if an Ethernet jack does not currently
exist. This jack must be wired appropriately for an Ethernet connection. You cannot use a regular phone jack.
If the phone is a Cisco IP Phone 6841, you need a power outlet close to the phone. If the phone is a Cisco IP
Phone 6851, you require either a power outlet close to the phone or you need the LAN to provide Power over
Ethernet (PoE).
Procedure
Step 1
Hold the bracket against the wall, with the notches at the bottom.
Step 2 Use the level to ensure that the bracket is level.
Step 3
Use a pencil to mark the screw holes.
Step 4 Center the anchor over the pencil mark and use a #2 Phillips-head screwdriver to press the anchor into the
wall. Screw the anchor clockwise into the wall until it is seated flush.
Step 5
Use the M4-25L screws provided and the #2 Phillips-head screwdriver to attach the bracket to the wall through
the anchors.
You should tighten the screws so that the bracket is held to the wall, but can be slipped off.
The following graphic shows steps 1 to 5.
