Description
The phone offers high-quality speakerphone technology, including easy-to-use speaker On/Off, Microphone
Mute, and Headset buttons. These buttons are lit when active. For added security, the audible dual tone
multifrequency (DTMF) tones are masked when the speakerphone mode is used.
The internal 2-port Cisco Ethernet switch allows for a direct connection to a 10/100BASE-T Ethernet network
through an RJ-45 interface with single LAN connectivity for both the phone and a co-located PC. The system
administrator can designate separate VLANs (802.1Q) for the PC and Cisco Unified IP phones, providing
improved security and reliability of voice and data traffic.
A dedicated headset port eliminates the need for a separate amplifier when using a headset. This feature
allows the handset to remain in its cradle, making headset use simpler.
The convenient Volume Control button on the phone provides for easy decibel-level adjustments for the
speakerphone, handset, headset, and ringer. The handset is hearing aid-compatible (HAC). Additional volume
control gain can be achieved using an inline handset amplifier such as Walker Equipment W-10 and CE-100
amplifiers.
The phone foot-stand is adjustable from flat to 60 degrees to provide optimum display viewing and comfortable
use of all buttons and keys. The foot-stand is keyed to match standard wall-jack configurations for wall
mounting. Two optional wall-mount brackets are also offered, as noted later in this document.
The Cisco Unified IP Phone 7961G supports Cisco Prestandard Power over Ethernet (PoE), allowing powering
from any of the Cisco Inline Power-capable blades and boxes. In addition, it supports IEEE 803.af PoE. The
phone can be powered locally with a power supply (part number CP-PWR-CUBE-3).
More than 24 user-adjustable ring tones are available.
A HAC handset (meets ADA requirements) is available, as well as HAC compliance for magnetic coupling to
approved HAC hearing aids. The dial pad is also ADA-compliant.
The phone offers Skinny Client Control Protocol (SCCP) support.
G.711µ and G.729a audio compression codecs are available.
The phone supports differentiated services code point (DSCP) and 802.1Q/p standards.
The phone supports manufacturing-installed digital certificates, device authentication, and encryption.
Support for more than 20 languages is built-in (depends on Cisco Unified CallManager software version).
IP address assignment can be statically configured or configured through the DHCP client.
Comfort-noise generation and voice activity detection (VAD) programming are performed on a system basis.
