Cisco TelePresence

Interoperability Database

Warning - In preview mode

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.

Cisco TelePresence Server software version 4.0

Show data for version: 4.44.34.2(4.23)4.2(3.x)4.24.1 4.14.14.03.13.0(2.48)3.0(2.24)3.02.3(1.55)2.32.2(1.54)2.2(1.48)2.1(1.18)


Interoperability testing often requires interworking from one signaling/call control protocol to another. The following table lists phrases that are used to briefly describe the call paths that were tested for each interoperability scenario. The explicit call paths in the table place the endpoint first and the TelePresence Server last as a general convention. References to ‘TS’ mean either TelePresence Server behind Cisco TelePresence Conductor or TelePresence Server on its own.
