You can mount the Cisco Unified IP Phone on the wall using the footstand as a mounting bracket or you

ordered separately from the phone.) If you attach the Cisco Unified IP Phone to a wall using the standard
footstand and not the wall mount kit, you need to supply the following tools and parts:

Before You Begin
To ensure that the handset attaches securely to a wall-mounted phone, remove the handset wall hook
from the handset rest, rotate the hook 180 degrees, and reinsert the hook. Turning the hook exposes a lip
on which the handset catches when the phone is vertical. For an illustrated procedure, refer to Installing
the Wall Mount Kit for the Cisco Unified IP Phone.
Caution
Use care not to damage wires or pipes located inside the wall when securing screws to wall studs.
Procedure
Push in the footstand adjustment button.
Step 1
Adjust the footstand so it is flat against the back of the phone.
