CCM4.x and CP-7975G (licence model)

[richard.turian]

Hello,

we have CCM 4.x and CP-7960G phones are EoS. So we would like to buy new model CP-7975G.

I have heard we have to use an Add-on supporting 7975G on CCM 4.x.

I want to be sure about RTU/license we have to buy with the 7975G phone.

(in price list isnt price for CP-7975G-CH1, so it is littke bit confusing to me).

Can anybode help?

Thanks James,

one question more,

sw version of CCM is 4.1(3)sr2 but 7975G phones are supported from version 4.1(3)sr5b.

Is there an add-on we can use for compatibility with our current version?

Hi,

Thank you for the nice rating.

You can download the software update from the link below:

You need to have a valid software maintenance contract to login and obtain the software.

James,

is that an Add-on for new phone (7975G) or complete upgrade of CCM 4.x to higher version?

Hi,

It is a service release to CallManager 4.1 which fixes bugs and has new phone firmware. It is not a major or minor version update.

It would be recommended to start planning an upgrade to a newer version though. Software maintenance has finished for CM4.1 and support for it will end on May 31st next year - see End of Life notice below.
