Cisco UC540 or 560?

[cellfinity]

Hello to all of you!

We have a request from a customer that wishes to buy a Cisco UC540 or 560 with 8 IP Phones.

The problem is that they wish to give access to TimeCard View to all of their 40 employees that work in shifts 24hours a day.

The question is how can we achieve that through a uc540 with 8 ip phones, is it all down to just adding phone and voicemail license to the system without purchasing the corresponding telephones (just the license) or we need to consider something else?

Can uc540 accept a total of 40 licenses including the 8 that comes with the box)? or we need to purchase the 560?

Thank you in advance!

Yes, by adding CUE licenses, you can increase timeview users beyond 8.
