Cisco 7900 Series IP Phones

Cisco IP Phones deliver essential business communications at a touch. Fully programmable, with three models to choose from, 7960, 7940, 7910 and 7910+SW, Cisco IP telephones provide the most frequently used business features in an easy-to-program and easy-to-use platform. Each model is a full-featured telephone that can be plugged directly into a standard 10/100BASE-T Ethernet connection. Each provides toll-quality audio, and three models are equipped with a two port Cisco 10/100 switch to allow a connection from a companion PC. Because they are IP-based telephones, they can be installed anywhere on a corporate IP network. The phones are Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) supported and do not need to be co-located with the Cisco CallManager. Cisco IP telephones support both G.711 and G.723a audio compression for low-bandwidth requirements. The download firmware capability allows the phone to be programmed from the system with new capabilities.

Key Features

  • The Cisco 7960 is a full-featured Cisco IP Phone with 6 programmable line and speed dial buttons. The Cisco 7940 has 2 buttons, for users with lower traffic applications. Both include full-duplex speakerphone with lighted mute button. A large 3 x 4 inch pixel LCD displays graphical and text information such as date and time, calling party name, calling party number, and digits dialed. These phones are also XML-enabled, making them ideal for displaying Internet content.
  • The Cisco IP Phone Expansion Module 7914 extends the capabilities of the Cisco 7960 with additional buttons and an LCD display, increasing the total number of buttons to 20 with one module, or 34 with two. Replacement of the standard Cisco 7960 footstand is required. Additional power cubes and cords may be required.
  • The Cisco IP Conference Station 7935 is a full-duplex hands-free conference station for use on desktops and offices, and in small to medium-sized conference rooms. In addition to the regular telephony keypad, there are three soft keys, a pixel-based LCD display, and menu navigation keys.
  • The Cisco 7910 and 7910+SW are the Cisco IP Phones designed for low-end, low-traffic requirements such as hallways, break rooms, and other areas not requiring high-end features. These two models are single line phones, and have a 2 x 24 character LCD display for call status and identification.
  • DHCP support for Cisco IP Phones makes phone setup virtually automatic. With DHCP new installations can be accomplished in seconds, saving time and money over today's complex PBX system management.
  • Moving Cisco IP Phones requires no manual database adjustments or wiring changes, unlike legacy telephone systems. The phones can be moved from one Ethernet port to another, anywhere on the enterprise IP network, and the Cisco IP Phones will automatically boot and reregister with Cisco CallManager.
  • Cisco IP Phones are Microsoft NetMeeting enabled. Using NetMeeting, features such as application sharing and video conferencing are available simply by pressing a button on your Cisco IP telephone.
  • All models use Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) to enable power down the LAN thus eliminating the need for a local power transformer cube.

Cisco CallManager 3.0 and 3.1

Cisco CallManager call-processing software extends enterprise telephony features and capabilities to enterprise LANs and packet telephony network devices such as IP phones, media processing devices, voice-over-IP (VoIP) gateways, and multimedia applications. Additional data, voice, and video services such as unified messaging, multimedia conferencing, collaborative contact centers, and interactive multimedia response systems interact with the IP telephony solution through CallManager's open telephony application programming interfaces (API). Cisco CallManager is installed on the Cisco Media Convergence Server (MCS) and selected third-party servers. It ships with a suite of integrated voice applications and utilities, including the Cisco WebAttendant--a software-only manual attendant console; a conferencing application; and administrative reporting tools. For more VoIP network management features, see the CiscoWorks VoIP Health Monitor, page See CiscoWorks VoIP Health Monitor.

Cisco CallManager version 3.2 provides a scalable, distributable, and highly available enterprise IP telephony call-processing solution. Multiple servers are clustered and managed as a single entity; yielding scalability of up to 10,000 users per cluster. By interlinking multiple clusters, system capacity can be increased to as many as one million users in a 100-site system. Clustering aggregates the power of multiple, distributed Cisco CallManagers, enhancing the scalability and accessibility of the servers to phones, gateways, and applications. Triple call-processing server redundancy improves overall system availability.

The benefit of this distributed architecture is improved system availability and scalability. Call admission control ensures that voice quality of service (QoS) is maintained across constricted WAN links, and automatically diverts calls to alternative Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) routes when WAN bandwidth is not available. A Web-browsable interface to the configuration database enables remote device and system configuration.

Key Features

  • Cisco CallManager includes a suite of integrated voice applications that perform voice conferencing and manual attendant console functions, eliminating the need for special-purpose voice processing hardware.
  • Supplementary and enhanced services such as hold, transfer, forward, conference, multiple line appearances, automatic route selection, speed dial, last-number redial, and other features are extended to IP phones and gateways.
  • Capabilities enhancements are achieved though software upgradeability, avoiding expensive hardware costs traditional to legacy PBX systems
  • Cisco WebAttendant--This Web-enabled application supports the traditional role of a manual attendant console and allows the attendant to quickly accept and dispatch calls to enterprise users. An integrated directory service provides traditional busy lamp field (BLF) and direct station select (DSS) functions for any line in the system. It monitors the state of every line in the system without requiring hardware-based line monitoring devices, thereby saving costs.
  • Software-only applications such as the Cisco Interactive Voice Response system, Cisco IP Contact Center, Cisco Automated Attendant, and Cisco SoftPhone are applications that interact with the CallManager through telephony APIs.

Cisco Voice Gateways

Voice Gateways interface directly to PBXs or public telephone networks to carry voice traffic across IP networks--by converting IP calls to standard telephony calls and vice versa. They provide connectivity between packet telephony and legacy telephony such as PSTN, PBX, fax machines, and other devices.

Cisco's full line of multiservice routers can also add analog and digital voice gateway functionality through the use of network modules and voice interface cards16, such as the Catalyst 6000 Family FXS Analog Interface Module.

Cisco offers the following dedicated voice gateways, the Cisco VG200 and VG248.

Cisco VG200 Voice Gateway

Key Features

  • Supports small offices and enterprise applications
  • Supports H.323 & MGCP and several voice codecs such as G.711, G.729, G.723.1
  • Transcoding & conference services with optional DSP Farm network module
  • With DHCP, automatically obtains IP address & identifies appropriate CallManager
  • Single point of configuration and administration via Cisco CallManager
  • Manageable with SNMP or CLI via Telnet; manage software downloads via TFTP
  • ISDN PRI (T1/E1) (network and user side); T1/E1-CAS; BRI; E&M; FXS; FXO (loop and ground start)
  • Supplementary services (hold, transfer, conference, park, etc.)

Cisco VG248 Voice Gateway

The Cisco VG248 Voice Gateway is a 1 unit high rack mountable device which allows 48 analog devices (phones, fax machines & modems) to be used with Cisco Call Manager. It allows organizations with large numbers of analog phones (hotels, universities, hospitals, etc.) to deploy IP Telephony while maintaining the investment in legacy handsets. The analog lines are full featured (caller id, message waiting lights, feature codes) and the price per port is competitive with a legacy PBX.

Web Collaboration--Cisco Collaboration Server

The Cisco Collaboration Server (CCS) enables customers to interact with your customer service representatives over the Web while conducting a text chat conversation. They can share Web pages, complete on-line forms in a collaborative fashion, and share any Windows desktop application using nothing more than their Web browsers. By facilitating effective, personalized assistance designed to greatly enhance the customer experience, CCS is an ideal solution for both sales- and service-oriented customer service organizations.
