[cisco-voip] gigabit to the desktop!

[Matthew Loraditch]

I have just now switched to doing Gig Phones for all new build outs. In those Scenarios we are using 6945s for regular users and 8961s for users who need several lines.

We aren’t pushing any phone upgrades as even the 7940s and 7960s really still do everything our customer base wants. If we need to replace or add single phones we just add the 7942 or 7962s as applicable to the scenario.

Frankly we aren’t even pushing gig upgrades in general, there are very few scenarios in our vertical (Car Dealers) that need that type of bandwidth to the desktop. Our 10/100 switches are chugging along fine.

I can imagine that several of your organizations are going through some network equipment refresh and installing gigabit connectivity to the desktop. What in this case are you doing for telephones? Are you performing forklift upgrades in this areas and installing gigabit phones? Or are you replacing them as required? How are you dealing with the disparity in service level when you compare a monochrome 7940/42 with a colour 7945?

General comments are welcome....
