[cisco-voip] Cisco UCM with Skype for Business

[daniel at ohnesorge.me]

You have a few options but none will suit your needs:

- Partitioned Intra-Domain Federation from CUPS to Lync will provide IM/Presence 
- Direct SIP Trunk to Lync Mediation Server will provide the ability to call Enterprise Voice enabled Lync clients (no video)
- VCS/Expressway to Lync Mediation Server with/without Media Bypass will provide voice and video to Enterprise Voice enabled Lync clients
- RCC (with Enterprise Voice disabled) will give you deskphone control of your Cisco phones from Lync client
- CUCILync (with Enterprise Voice disabled) will give you voice/video softphone as well as deskphone control

All of the above solutions cater different needs but you are limited with mobile support. You can run Jabber on mobile devices in Phone-only mode and then have separate Lync client for IM but that would be a bad user experience.

Unless there is a specific reason to use Lync/SFB, if you already have a CUCM you may want to go Jabber and choose one of the above options.
