CP-8851-K9 and CP-8851NR-K9 are the same 8851 hardware with five line keys, a gigabit switch, a side USB port and up to two Cisco 8800 KEMs, but CP-8851-K9 has a Bluetooth 3.0 EDR Class 1 radio and CP-8851NR-K9 has none, so the NR model suits sites that want HD audio and KEMs without Bluetooth. CP-8851-W-K9 is the white version of CP-8851-K9 with the same specifications. A desk that needs three KEMs or Wi-Fi moves to CP-8865-K9, which takes up to three KEMs and 802.11a/b/g/n/ac, but it uses CP-8800-V-KEM= instead of CP-8800-A-KEM=.

Ordering Checklist

  • Switch PoE class and KEM count: Hardware before V08 is Class 3 and powers 1 KEM on PoE; V08 and later is Class 4 and powers 2 KEMs. A phone on a Class 3 switch port cannot run a second KEM on PoE.
  • Power Cube 4 for two KEMs on Class 3: A phone below hardware V08, or one on a Class 3 switch port, needs CP-PWR-CUBE-4= (CP-PWR-CUBE-4-S= with switch) plus one cord from CP-PWR-CORD-{AP,AR,AU,BZ,CE,CN,JP,NA,SW,UK}= to run two KEMs. V08 and later hardware on a Class 4 port runs two KEMs on PoE.
  • KEM PID: Order CP-8800-A-KEM= for each expansion module, not CP-8800-V-KEM=. V-KEM is the 8865 module; the 8851 order table lists CP-8800-A-KEM=.
  • Wall mount: Order CP-8800-WMK= for the phone alone, or CP-8800-A-KEM-WMK= for a phone with one KEM. A wall kit exists only for the phone or phone plus a single KEM.

    When we had a question after delivery, they responded the same day. Would have liked a tracking update sooner, but the product is great.

    They offered to verify compatibility before shipping. Went above and beyond. Invoice formatting was a bit different from what our AP system expects, but workable.

Questions & Answers

  • Which call platforms does CP-8851-K9 register to?

    CP-8851-K9 registers to Cisco Unified Communications Manager 12.5 and later with an Enhanced User Connect License. Signaling uses Session Initiation Protocol, and BE 6000 releases 8.6.2, 9.1.2, 10.5.2 and 11.0 and later are also listed.
  • What PoE class does CP-8851-K9 need, and what powers two Key Expansion Modules?

    CP-8851-K9 needs IEEE PoE Class 3 before hardware V08 and Class 4 for hardware V08 and above. A phone below V08, or on a Class 3 switch port, needs CP-PWR-CUBE-4= (CP-PWR-CUBE-4-S= with switch) plus a country power cord to run two Key Expansion Modules.
  • Which Unified CME release and firmware releases support CP-8851-K9?

    CP-8851-K9 registers to Unified CME 10.0, which needs IOS load 15.3(3)M. Firmware releases 14.3(1)SR3 and 14.4(1)SR1 both cover it, per the Cisco IP Phone 8800 firmware 14.3 and 14.4 release notes.
  • Which spare PIDs are listed for the handset, handset cord, foot stand and bezel of CP-8851-K9?

    CP-DX-HS= is the spare handset in Charcoal and CP-DX-W-HS= in White, with CP-DX-CORD= and CP-DX-W-CORD= as the matching cords. CP-8800-FS= is the foot stand, and CP-8800-B-BEZEL= or CP-8800-S-BEZEL= is the black or silver bezel.
  • What temperature and humidity range does CP-8851-K9 operate in?

    CP-8851-K9 operates at 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F) and 10% to 90% noncondensing humidity. Place it in a conditioned office area, because desks outside that range are beyond the rated limits.
  • Which audio codecs does CP-8851-K9 support?

    CP-8851-K9 supports G.711, G.722, G.722.2, G.729ab, iLBC, iSAC and OPUS, and it signals with Session Initiation Protocol. Quality of service uses 802.1Q/p, and the phone discovers its VLAN through Cisco Discovery Protocol or LLDP-MED.
