8.0 Early Adopter Pack for UC500 series

[John Platts]

I have heard details about Cisco Unified CME 8.0 on the following page:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucme/feature/guide/Cisco_Unified_IPPhones_69xx_Series.html

Features added to Cisco Unified CME 8.0:

• Support for Cisco 6900 series phones
• Do Not Disturb and Privacy feature buttons
  
• Unlocked MeetMe Conference

When will the 8.0 Early Adopter pack be released for UC500 series? Will future versions of CCA and the UC500 version of CME 8 support the 6900 phones?

Hi John,

We are planning for the 8.0 Software Pack for release around late November, however, CCA will not support new features listed in CME 8.0. Support for 6900 Series IP Phones is planned for later next year, not in the Nov/Dec timeframe.

Thanks,

Saurabh
