[cisco-voip] 7940s and 60s - no EOL just yet

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

In all my conversations, the 7940s were considered 1st gen phones and then go up from there.

I really don't think anyone refers to the original selsius phones as 1st gen.

  I was told no new features can be developed on 2nd generation due to limitation, so buy 3rd generation.

   

  I like the 3rd generation myself, and haven’t touched a fourth generation phone yet, but iLBC codec holds great promise for bad wan links.

   

  1st Generation VIP12/VIP30 (white phones, only did G711)

  2nd Generation CP7940/7960/7935/7970/7920

  3rd Generation CP7941/7961/7985/7936/7921

  4th Generation CP7975/7965/7945/7962/7942 (Headset Hook Control, iLBC Codec support)

  Any comments on 3rd gen phones, is anyone using them instead of 2 gen?

  There have been a couple of comments on the list re: 7940s and 60s and EOL.

   

  According to this: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/phones/ps379/prod_eol_notices_list.html they have not been EOL'ed just yet.

   

  That being said, I'm not sure anyone would want to go out with a new deployment using them, but they are still supported.

   

  I'm pretty sure the second/third gen phones are the way to go.
