[cisco-voip] 7832 vs 8832 vs 8831

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

We're looking at ordering a new conference phone... people have complained about the two pieces the 8831 has for simple operations so I'm looking at the 7832 or 8832.

Looking through the 8832 datasheet, I am a bit confused about the power injector options. According to the CCW estimator tool, I can only select either Power over Ethernet option (CP-8832-POE) power injector or non-PoE (CP-8832-ETH) power injector. I do like the fact that it supports MRA. The data sheet also states that CUCM v12 is required and v11.5 requires a devpak, but I see from our v11.5(1)su4 system that the 8832 is a valid option for a new phone.

The 7832 looks "good enough" - monochrome screen and no expandability like the 8832.

Anyone have any comments/suggestions about using these two phones?
