We endeavor to make our Cisco TelePresence products interoperable with all
relevant standards-based equipment. Although it is not possible to test all
scenarios, the testing on which this data is based covers most common functions
of the listed endpoints and infrastructure.
The following pages describe the software releases that were tested for
interoperability with Cisco TelePresence products. The results are grouped by
product range. It is not possible to guarantee that all the models listed in the
Product(s) column have been tested with the specified software release, although
to the best of our knowledge we believe that all such models are interoperable
with the associated software release. The absence of a device or release does
not imply a lack of interoperability.
