Can I integrate spark with telepresence 1000 ? What might be the procedure?

[jose.contreras11]

Currently we have a Cisco Telepresence 1000 system, that is integrated with Unified Communications Manager, do we need a license is our system able to integrate with spark ?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Sincerely yours

Today the spark cloud only supports SX10N and even in the future it will support current generation endpoints like SX20, MX, DX vs the older endpoints like CTS. So the only way is to do hybrid services with the legacy endpoints registered to UCM and using expressway to connect to the spark cloud

Thanks a lot.

We already have a Call Manager version: 8.6.2.23900-10 , do we need only to acquire the license for expressway or should we add some other services such as CMR and VCS ?

You would need 10.5.2 or later to do hybrid services with expressway. Expressway is free with your UCM subscription.

CMR will allow for bridging either cloud or on-premise but today spark has built in bridging of up to 25 but also spark users can be in that bridge. You have to move to WebEx to have all types of users like Spark, standards based video endpoint, Lync to be able to join in the cloud or on premise.
