The hardware SKUs for the 9300s (will use a 48p PoE switch as an example) seem to be the same from a cost perspective. For example, a C9300-48P-A is the same list price as a C9300-48P-E.However, the E model hardware is limited in CCW by the licensing...

Has the 7937 gone EoS? I cannot find a EoS notice, but it is no longer orderable in Netformx/CCW. Its not on the EoS list for the 7900 series (yet): Cisco Unified IP Phone 7900 Series - End-of-Sale Models - CiscoJust curious.

CCW would even seem to suggest that selecting 'E' model hardware is not a good choice (see attached screen shots)@
