Re: New Intercom Solution in V5 & Cisco Phones

[mikehains]

Hi,

I have just loaded the Released Verison 5 stuff, and so far so good.

I have been waiting for this for a while now, as there are some good things that i knew where coming.

ONe question on one of the new Fuctions, Intercom on Request. I suggested this a while back and it is excellent that you have done it, Thanks.

Although, can i ask, why it will not working on my Cisco 7940,7960 and 7970, that i have on my test bench.

I also have some Snoms and it works ok on those.

Can you advise how to get up the Cisco to use this fuction.

Thanks Adam

Cisco 7940,7960 and 7970 are not in Quadro supported phones list, so we have no special support for them, including the intercom.
To be more specific: as far as I know, there is no generally accepted standard for requesting the Intercom, so we have to support custom methods of doing that on each phone. Thus we are doing that only for our Supported Phones.

Best regards,
David

Thanks David for the reply, Do you think you will every support Cisco IP Handsets, there has been a couple of times now as a reseller that i could have got Sales over the Line if we could use Cisco Phones, but not loose the Functionallity of the system as if we where using Snoms or AASTRA's.
The BLF is another thing that dont work on CIsco Phones, it would be good to get this working....but maybe not a high priority for Epygi...but would be good.

Thanks Adam
