Can a SIP trunk be configured on a Cisco Voice Gateway without enabling CUBE or require CUBE licensing?

I understand that CUBE licensing is the honor system, and is not actually applied to the Gateway. I'm asking if I need to enable CUBE or can I just create a SIP connection on the Voice Gateway, connecting to a Service Provider, another CUCM Node, a 3rd Party IP/PBX, etc...
I understand this is not "Best Practice" just curious if this is technically possible and that it also doesn't get you in licensing trouble with Cisco.

From a legal/licensing POV, you do need to buy the CUBE licenses for your GW if you intend to use it as a CUBE.

But can't I configure SIP without enabling CUBE?

@Mohammed al Baqari has already replied to you on this; CUBE is only needed when you have IP to IP connectivity needs. If you have a SIP trunk to CUCM on the one call leg and the other call leg is a connection to the PSTN through, for example, an ISDN PRI then you do not need have CUBE enabled.
