Cisco Unified Communications Support for Microsoft Windows 7

PB563280

October 22, 2009, was the public release of Microsoft Windows 7.

Cisco is committed to maintaining a high degree of interoperability between Cisco® Unified Communications Solutions and Microsoft software. As part of this ongoing commitment, we already support Microsoft Windows 7 across many of our product lines.
Across the software industry, the migration of software applications from a 32-bit architecture to a 64-bit architecture is taking place as 64-bit computer, driver, and operating system support becomes widespread. Cisco's evaluations of 32-bit Cisco Unified Communications desktop applications have not shown any significant loss in functions when running these applications in 64-bit Windows machines running in 32-bit emulation mode (WoW64, enabled in Windows by default). To avoid delays in the much-anticipated Cisco Unified Communications System Release 8.0, Cisco is maintaining our current release schedules and plans to gradually introduce Windows 7 as well as native 64-bit support.
Table 1 indicates the first-customer-shipment (FCS) dates for specific Cisco Unified Communications products with planned support of Microsoft Windows 7 on 32- and 64-bit machines. Support on 64-bit machines is either on WoW64 emulator mode or Native 64-bit mode, as noted in the table.
Information is current as of May 2010. Table 1 will be updated as additional information such as maintenance or service release and native 64-bit support details becomes available. Please direct any questions to your local Cisco account team or channel representative.
