     - Install Network and PC cable (IMPORTANT – ensure the correct network and PC ports are connected appropriately. 

      Looking at the back of the phone – The network port    is on the left and PC port   on the right).

 

Note:  If your 7940 is using an external power supply, the new 8811 no longer requires external power.  Power for the 8811 is provided by PoE (Power over Ethernet).  Return external power unit with the 7940 phone.
