Established Global IT Distributor
With over a decade of industry experience, we are a certified Cisco Partner delivering genuine enterprise networking hardware and trusted services to system integrators, ISPs, and enterprises worldwide.
CS-DESKMINI-K9 Description
The CS-DESKMINI-K9 is the Cisco Desk Mini in First Light gray, an all-in-one personal collaboration endpoint at compliance model TTC9-01. A 15.6-inch IPS LED touch display runs 1080p at 16:9 with projected capacitive multi-touch, set on a fixed 11-degree tilt with the display and camera raised to a 7.9-inch height so the camera meets the user at eye level rather than from below. The camera covers a 64-degree horizontal and 50-degree vertical field at f/2.0 on an 8MP sensor, with a privacy shutter whose front LED signals incoming calls and camera activation. Audio pairs a 3-element microphone system for angle estimation with a single-channel loudspeaker built from an 18mm tweeter and dual force-cancelling 80mm woofers, rated 65 Hz to 20 kHz and 92 dB maximum sound pressure level. One USB-C cable carries display extension at 1920 x 1080 at 60 fps, touch redirect and use of the camera, microphone and speakers by any software client, so the unit doubles as a dock for a personal laptop. Networking is a single 10/100/1000 Ethernet port, the unit runs Room OS 11 or later, and it ships with a USB-C cable and power cable in the box.

Product Performance
Key Features
The display and camera sit at a 7.9-inch height on a fixed 11-degree tilt, so the outgoing shot looks across at the user instead of up from desk height, which is the framing complaint most personal endpoints create.
Dual 80mm woofers in a force-cancelling arrangement with an 18mm tweeter reach 65 Hz to 20 kHz at up to 92 dB, giving a small desk device low-end reach without transmitting cabinet vibration into the desk surface.
A 3-element microphone system estimates speaker angle rather than simply summing inputs, and combines with focused sound pickup and de-reverberation to hold speech clarity in an untreated open-plan position.
USB-C BYOD carries display extension at 1920 x 1080 at 60 fps, touch redirect and full camera, microphone and speaker passthrough, so one cable turns the endpoint into the laptop’s monitor and conferencing hardware.
The camera privacy shutter carries a front LED that indicates incoming calls and camera activation, giving a physical privacy state that is visible without opening a settings screen.
Rated at 60W maximum but drawing 7.5W in networked standby and 0.3W powered off, the unit can be left connected at every desk without adding meaningful continuous load to the floor’s power budget.
Application Scenarios
Installed at assigned desks where one user takes scheduled video calls from a dedicated endpoint while the 15.6-inch panel serves as a secondary work display.
Deployed at shared touchdown positions where staff connect a personal laptop over USB-C and drive the display, camera and audio from their own client.
Placed in home offices where the 14.6 by 16.25 inch footprint at 8.5 lb fits a domestic desk that cannot host a full-size room endpoint.

- CS-DESKMINI-K9 and CS-DESKMINI-C-K9 are the same standard-version hardware in two finishes, First Light gray and Carbon Black, at identical compliance model and power figures, so the split is a desk aesthetics decision with separate spare part numbers to track.
- CS-DESKMINI-NR-K9 is the functional variant in this group: it removes the radio for sites that mandate wired-only endpoints while keeping the display, camera and audio unchanged.
- For deciding which SKU to order, settle wireless policy first because that is the only capability difference, then pick a finish; display size, camera field of view, loudspeaker rating and 60W maximum draw are shared across all three.
Selection Guide
1. Finish Choice Carries Its Own Spare PID
CS-DESKMINI-C-K9 delivers the identical Desk Mini in Carbon Black, so a dark-desk standard is met at no capability cost, but each finish keeps a separate spare part number, which means a mixed-finish estate has to stock both CS-DESKMINI-K9= and CS-DESKMINI-C-K9= rather than one spare.
2. Wired-Only Sites Take The No-Radio Edition
Sites that forbid on-board wireless move to CS-DESKMINI-NR-K9, giving up the radio while keeping the same panel, camera and audio; ordering the standard PID into such a site leaves a radio that must be administratively disabled rather than absent.
3. Multipoint Needs A Separate License
Embedded multipoint conferencing arrives through LIC-DESK-MS rather than the hardware PID, so a design that expected the endpoint to host multiparty calls has to carry that software line from the start.
4. Stylus And Ethernet Cable Are Optional Lines
The box holds only the Desk Mini, a USB-C cable and a power cable; the stylus kit and Ethernet cable are optional hardware components, so a wired rollout using annotation needs CAB-ETH-3M-GR= and the stylus kit ordered alongside.
Ordering Checklist
|
Check Item |
What to Confirm |
Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
|
Compliance model |
Confirm the delivered unit reports TTC9-01. |
Separates Desk Mini hardware from other Cisco desk endpoints that use different compliance models. |
|
Ethernet cable supply |
Confirm CAB-ETH-3M-GR= is ordered when a wired connection is planned. |
The box ships only a USB-C cable and power cable, so a wired desk has no network lead without this line. |
|
Stylus requirement |
Confirm the stylus kit is on the order when annotation on the touch panel is expected. |
The stylus is an optional hardware component and cannot be assumed present at deployment. |
|
MultiSite license |
Confirm LIC-DESK-MS is added when the endpoint must host embedded multipoint calls. |
Multipoint is licensed separately from the hardware PID and is not enabled by default. |
|
Spare part number by finish |
Confirm spares are ordered as CS-DESKMINI-K9= for this finish rather than the Carbon Black spare. |
The two finishes carry distinct spare PIDs, so a wrong spare arrives in the wrong color for the installed estate. |
