79xx Phones and Upgrade to UCM 14.0

[RICHARD MESSINGER]

have a customer that we are going to be upgrading from 12.5 to 14.0 in the near term.

They still have a bunch of 79xx phones that are not deprecated (yet) in 14.0.

Just wondering if anyone has upgraded to 14.0 and the phone are still working or did you really need to get them replaced?

[Roger Kallberg]

The list of any deprecated phones would be in the release notes. That's said there where no phones that where deprecated in 14 as compared to 12.5, so no you should not need to replace then on the account of that.

Customer and I have read the Release notes.  The question is really has anyone done the upgrade to 14.x and the 79xx phones still worked?

[Roger Kallberg · Accepted solution]

Yes we have done that and it works.

I have almost 15 clusters which are on 14 and they all have 79XX,89XX, 69XX.. As you are aware no support will be available in case if there is an issues with the those phones. No critical issues observed yet post migration which we completed last year.

We are replacing them batch by batch as these devices are EOL.

2.12.0.0

2.12.0.0

I have upgraded CUCM cluster to version 14 which contains a lot of 79XX and 89XX phones and works fine without any issues.
