Cisco CP-7905G Unified Single-Line IP Desk Phone (SCCP / H.323 / SIP Multi-Protocol Support), Pixel-Based Monochrome LCD Display, Single 10BASE-T Fast Ethernet Uplink Port, Cisco Pre-Standard Inline Power & IEEE 802.3af PoE Compatible, Monitor-Only One-Way Speaker (No Hands-Free Microphone), Four Dynamic Softkeys + Dedicated Hold & Volume Control Keys, HAC Hearing-Aid Compatible Handset, Compact Charcoal & Silver Two-Tone ABS Chassis, Single-Angle Desktop Stand or Wall Mountable, Ideal for Building Lobbies, Factory Production Floors, Staff Break Rooms, Laboratory Workspaces and Low-Traffic Single-Line Auxiliary VoIP Deployments
Full Commercial Overview
The Cisco CP-7905G is a cost-optimized single-line entry-level IP phone within the Cisco Unified IP Phone 7900 Series, engineered for basic voice communication in shared low-traffic auxiliary spaces where advanced multi-line, PC passthrough or full two-way hands-free calling are unnecessary. It is the upgraded successor to the original CP-7905 non-PoE model, adding support for network inline power and compatibility with Cisco CallManager 3.3 and later releasesCisco.
This phone supports three native VoIP protocols for flexible enterprise integration: proprietary SCCP (Skinny Client Control Protocol) for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM/CallManager), H.323 Version 2, and open SIP v2 for third-party PBX and disaster recovery SRST deployments.
Core Hardware Differentiators vs other 7900 Series Models
-
Pixel-based monochrome LCD screen: Distinguishes it from the LCD-less CP-7902G, delivering visual Caller ID, call timers and XML application rendering.
-
Monitor-only passive speaker: Only outputs ringtone and one-way call monitoring audio; no built-in microphone for full-duplex two-way hands-free conference calling (major contrast to CP-7912G which features full hands-free speakerphone).
-
Single 10BASE-T Ethernet port only: No secondary PC pass-through switch port, eliminating workstation daisy-chaining capability for simplified auxiliary-space cabling.
-
Multi-protocol support (SCCP/H.323/SIP): Broader protocol compatibility than the SCCP-only CP-7902G.
-
Minimal key layout: Four dynamic LCD softkeys, dedicated Hold key, volume rocker and standard numeric dial pad, without extra dedicated Transfer/Conference hard keys.
The unit features a two-tone matte charcoal and silver recyclable ABS plastic chassis, a single-position foldable desktop foot stand for basic screen viewing, and integrated rear mounting cutouts for direct wall installation without separate wall-mount accessory kits.
The CP-7905G reached official End-of-Sale (EoS) status years ago, with only limited critical security bug maintenance support remaining; Cisco recommends the CP-7906G as its direct hardware replacement model. All remote mass provisioning, unattended bulk firmware upgrades and centralized device monitoring are supported via TFTP auto-provisioning servers and embedded HTTPS web administration interfaces, fully integrated with CUCM and Cisco Unified SRST fallback voice gateways.
