Product Overview

Cisco^® Unified Communications Solutions unify voice, video, data, and mobile applications on fixed and mobile networks,

delivering a media-rich collaboration experience across business, government agency, and institutional workspaces.

These applications use the network as the platform to enhance comparative advantage by accelerating decision time and reducing transaction time.

The security, resilience, and scalability of the network enable users in any workspace to easily connect anywhere, anytime, and anyplace, using any media, device or operating system.

Cisco Unified Communications is part of a comprehensive solution that includes network infrastructure, security, wireless, management applications, lifecycle services,

flexible deployment and outsourced management options, and third-party applications.

The Cisco Unified IP Phone 7965G (Figure 1) demonstrates the latest advances in VoIP telephony, including wideband audio support, backlit color display, and an integrated Gigabit Ethernet port.

It addresses the needs of the executive or major decision maker, administrative assistants, and those working with bandwidth-intensive applications on collocated PCs.

This IP phone includes a large, backlit, easy-to-read color display (Figure 2) for easy access to communication information, timesaving applications, and features such as date and time, calling party name, calling party number,

digits dialed, and presence information. It also accommodates Extensible Markup Language (XML) applications that take advantage of the display

. The phone provides direct access to six telephone lines (or combination of lines, speed dials, and direct access to telephony features), four interactive soft keys that guide you through call features and functions, and an intuitive four-way

(plus Select key) navigation cluster. A hands-free speakerphone and handset designed for high-fidelity wideband audio are standard, as is a built-in headset connection.
