Hi all,
I have the below questions please:
1- In HDX 7000, can the polycom soundstation duo connected to it and use its mic and speakers instead of the HDX mic and speakers, if yes how they are connected? If no, is there other porduct can the polycom soundstation duo connected to it?

 

2- Can the polycom soundstation duo connected to a cisco SX10 codec and the mic and speakers of the polycom soundstation duo be used instead of the SX10 mic & speakers,if yes, how they will be connected?

3- Can the polycom soundstation duo registered in cisco call manager express (CME) via SIP and used as audio conference, if yes, what is the CME version supported??
As I read the following after searching in polycom support document.
"Note that you can deploy SoundStation IP conference phones with Cisco Business Edition 6000 and
Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express, however, Polycom has not performed interoperability
tests"

4- Can i connected a pstn RJ11 cable directly to polycom soundstation duo and use it as a normal analog phone without the need of configuring or adding something?

 

 

thanks and looking forward for a clear answers i hope.

Hello AlOtheri,


This simply means we have not tested using one of our SIP Phones with this product and therefore cannot guarantee or document any limitations.

 

Its simply on your won risk to use any of our SIP phones with this untested device.

 

As long as it is a SIP server you "should" be able to make and receive calls but any features like a local conference etc. completely depends on you testing this yourself.


Please ensure to provide some feedback if this reply has helped you so other users can profit from your experience.

Hi Mr. Steffenand thanks for your detailed answers.

Your answers are clear except for number 3 , I already know about the connection with CUCM with its version as stated with the link http://www.polycom.com/products-services/voice/conferencing-solutions/conferencing-phones/soundstati...

I`m asking about connecting the soundstation duo with CME;call manager express which is a cisco router installed inside it the call manager express. The only resource i found in Polycom is "Note that you can deploy SoundStation IP conference phones with Cisco Business Edition 6000 and Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express, however, Polycom has not performed interoperability tests", but i dont understand the statment "Polycom has not performed interoperability tests"

 

Can you advice.

thanks again.
