Before You Begin
You need these tools to install the bracket:

• Level
You must also install an Ethernet jack for the telephone 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 telephone jack. For more information about phone installation requirements and warnings, see
the Setting Up the Cisco Unified IP Phone chapter.

b. Using a #2 Phillips-head screwdriver, carefully center the anchor over the pencil mark and press the
anchor into the wall.
c. Screw the anchor clockwise into the wall until it is seated flush.
d. Use the included screws and a #2 Phillips-head screwdriver to attach the bracket to the wall.
