Overview of the Cisco Small Business IP Phones

The Cisco Small Business IP Phones are full-featured VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) phones that provide voice communication over an IP network. The phones provide traditional features, such as call forwarding, redialing, speed dialing, transferring calls, conference calling, and accessing voice mail. Calls can be made or received with a handset, headset or over a speaker. IP phones also have special features not available in traditional phones.

The Cisco Small Business IP phones contain Ethernet ports that allow them to be linked to the computer network. They also have Ethernet ports that allow a computer to be connected to the network through the IP phone.

Cisco Small Business IP phones require a separate power source. You can power the phones by connecting them to a switch that provides Power over Ethernet (PoE), or by using the optional a Cisco PA100 power adapter.

The following table shows the Cisco Small Business IP Phones covered in this document and their respective features:

Cisco Small Business SPA50X and SPA51X Series SPCP IP Phone User Guide 21

Installing Your Phone

Verifying Phone Startup

After receiving power and network connectivity, the phone executes a boot sequence. During this sequence, phones with IP phone screens display the Cisco logo, the message Initializing Network and all of the lights on the phone flash.

After your phone successfully connects to the network, it checks for and downloads an updated configuration and firmware. When the boot process is complete, the extension number appears on the IP phone screen (on models with a IP phone screen) and the phone has a dial tone.

On models with IP phone screens, the phone displays the standard menu for the phone. The date, name and number of the phone display on the top line of the IP phone screen. At the bottom of the IP phone screen, softkeys are displayed over their associated soft buttons.

On models with no IP phone screen, such as the green and you hear a dial tone when the handset is picked up or when the speaker button is pressed.

If the phone does not start, confirm your installation and connections. If these are correct, try unplugging the phone and plugging it back in again. Cycling the phone connection updates the configuration and the firmware. If you still do not see the display, then contact your phone administrator or Internet Telephony Service Provider (ITSP).

Updating Your Phone Firmware

The phone firmware is updated automatically by the Cisco Smart Business Communications System (SBCS), according to the administrative settings.

Tone Sc ript

A ToneScript is a mini-script that specifies the frequency, level, and cadence of a call progress tone. It can include up to 127 characters.

Syntax: FreqScript;Z1[;Z2]

The section Zi is similar to the Si section in a CadScript except that each on/off segment is followed by a frequency components parameter:

Zi = Di(oni,1/offi,1/fi,1[,oni,2/offi,2/fi,2 [,oni,3/offi,3/ fi,3 [,oni,4/offi,4/fi,4 [,oni,5/offi,5/fi,5 [,oni,6/offi,6/ fi,6]]]]])

where fi,j = n1[+n2]+n3[+n4[+n5[+n6]]]]] and 1 <nk<6 indicates which of the frequency components in the FreqScript shall be used in that segment. If more than one frequency component is used in a segment, the components are summed together.
