Overview of the Cisco SPA9000 Voice System IP Phones

The Cisco SPA IP Phones are full-featured VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) phones that provide voice communication over an IP network. The phones have 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.
NOTE: If you are calling phones located outside your IP network, you will need an Internet Telephony Service Provider (ITSP) to provide VoIP service. You may also need additional equipment provided by your ITSP.
Cisco Small Business IP Phone SPA9XX User Guide 6
Getting Started
Overview of the Cisco SPA9000 Voice System IP Phones
IP phones also have special features not available in traditional phones. The Cisco SPA IP phones contain Ethernet ports, or ports that allow them to be linked to the computer network. Some models have additional Ethernet ports that allow a computer to be connected to the network through the IP phone.
Unlike traditional phones, Cisco SPA IP phones require a separate power source. Some models use power adapters, and others can use Power over Ethernet (PoE). This means the phone can be connected to a switch that provides PoE to the phone, and does not require a separate power source.
The following table shows the Cisco SPA IP phones currently available and their respective features:

SPA932 Attendant Console

The SPA932 is a 32-button attendant console for the SPA962 or SPA525, providing 32 three-color (red, green, and amber) programmable LEDS, with support for Broadsoft Busy Lamp Field and Asterisk Line Monitoring. The SPA932 attaches to the SPA962 or SPA525 with the attachment arm provided (not shown). It obtains power directly from the SPA962 or SPA525 and does not require a separate power supply. Two SPA932 units can be attached to a single SPA962 or SPA525 to monitor a total of 64 separate lines. For more information on the SPA932, see Chapter 6, “Using the SPA932 Attendant Console.”
Caring for Your Phone
The Cisco SPA IP phones are electronic devices that should not be exposed to excessive heat, sun, cold or water. To clean the equipment, use a slightly moistened paper or cloth towel. Do not spray or pour cleaning solution directly onto the hardware unit.

If you are using an external power source, push the power cord into the power supply, and plug the power supply into the phone base. See the Cisco SPA IP
Phone Connections graphic, item, #2.
NOTE: The SPA922, SPA942, and SPA962 models do not ship with a power supply. If you are not using Power over Ethernet (PoE), you must order the PA-100 power supply separately from Cisco.
If you are using Power over Ethernet (PoE) to power the phone, the phone will receive power when you connect an Ethernet cable from the phone’s WAN port to a switch in your network that provides PoE. See the ”Connecting Your Phone to the
Computer Network” section on page 20.

Connecting Your Phone to the Computer Network

NOTE: If you are connecting your phone to a Wireless-G network using the Cisco WBP54G, see the ”Connecting the Phone to the Wireless
Network” section on page 20.
Connecting Your Phone to the Computer Network
You connect your phone to the local network by using an Ethernet cable:
STEP 1 Plug the Ethernet cable into the back of the base station into the slot marked
“WAN.” This port is labeled #4 on the Cisco SPA IP Phone Connections graphic.
2
STEP 2 Plug the other end of the Ethernet cable into the appropriate device on your
network, such as a network switch.
NOTE: The SPA922, SPA942, and SPA962 models provide a second Ethernet port. You can connect a PC to this port to provide network access to the PC. This port is labeled #3 in the Cisco SPA IP Phone Connections graphic.

Connecting the Phone to the Wireless Network

You can use the Cisco WBP54G Wireless-G Bridge for Phone Adapters to connect the SPA92X, SPA94X, or SPA962 phones to a Wireless-G network instead of the wired local network.
NOTE: This procedure requires the optional Cisco SPA9000 Voice System IP Phone PA-100 power adapter to provide power to the WBP54G.

Verifying Phone Startup
After receiving power and network connectivity, the phone executes a boot-up sequence. During this sequence, the display will first show Cisco® and then “Initializing Network”. All of the lights on the phone will flash. After the sequence, which should take about five seconds, the phone will display the standard menu for the phone. The date, name and number of the phone will display on the top line of the LCD screen. At the bottom of the LCD screen, softkeys are displayed over their associated soft buttons.
If the phone does not provide this screen, confirm your installation and connections. If these are correct, try unplugging the phone and plugging it back in again. If you still don’t see the display, then contact your Phone Administrator or Internet Telephony Service Provider (ITSP).
