About the Cisco CP-8961-C-K9 IP phone / endpoint

The Cisco CP-8961-C-K9 is a compact, desktop IP phone engineered for enterprise communication environments where space and flexibility are priorities. This charcoal-colored endpoint connects via an adjustable footstand and integrates seamlessly into any modern workspace—or mounts to a wall using an optional kit for alternative installation scenarios. The device delivers professional-grade voice communications through a 5-inch QVGA color display (320 × 240 pixels), 5 programmable line keys, and 5 soft keys, making it ideal for finance teams, customer service operations, and distributed enterprise offices.

Built on the Cisco Unified IP Phone 8900 Series platform, the CP-8961-C-K9 supports up to 5 SIP lines and dual signaling protocols—SIP and SCCP—ensuring compatibility with Cisco Unified Communications Manager (UCM) and Webex Calling environments. Security is embedded through TLS encryption for signaling and SRTP protection for media streams. The phone features wideband HD audio with full-duplex speakerphone and handset capability, plus dual 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet ports (LAN uplink and PC pass-through) for flexible network integration. Power delivery arrives via IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet, with an optional Cisco CP-PWR-CUBE-4 adapter for environments requiring standalone power. The 1 USB port supports accessories, while codec support includes G.711, G.722, G.729a, and iLBC for maximum interoperability. Network engineers and IT procurement teams evaluating mid-range SIP endpoints will appreciate the Cisco Attendant Console and SIDECAR expansion module compatibility, extending functionality for specialized deployments.
