[Asterisk-Users] Cisco 7960 vs 7905

[Lars Fredriksson]

Hi!

I'm also going to buy an Cisco phone for testing with * - and my question is
which one?
For the 7960 for example I have the following "packages" to select in
between:

Cisco IP Phone 7960G, Global, Spare
Cisco IP Phone 7960G Global
7960 IP Phone With One CallManager Express Station
7960 IP Phone with one Station User License

The same "packages" are available for the other models also.

Is there anyone that can explain the differences between the packages to me,
I think the best would be to get an with a SIP image directly (as I've
understood that it wotks best with *) but that isn't possible maybe?


Thanks for any advice!

Best regards, Lars Fredriksson
